With @JPQ we found this genus-0 surface with three boundary components: a figure-8 knot, and two trefoils (one left-handed and the other right-handed). It turns out that such a surface exists for any three knots and we wrote a paper about it:
https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.12729
The three illustrations were done using crochet, 3D-printing, and Inkscape.

27 pieces.
I made it by from boromean rings at each corner, and then added the middle pieces. It still kind of works the same way, if you remove any one colour the other two are disconnected.

I have the day off today (trying to use up vacation before the new fiscal year starts), and am spending part of the day learning how to tie #knots. I don't think I'm ever going to have to secure a boat to a dock, but I do sometimes tie things up in my garden, and I've often thought there are probably better ways to do things than repeated overhand knots.
And I work in IT. Learning hand skills from time to time seems useful to keep myself from floating away in a puff of cybernetic abstraction.

#TilingTuesday but it's actually poorly drawn knotted ouroboroses outlining a ternary circle packing(wiθ 5/6/7 adjacencies)

I'm just thinking about knots and how they are so very, very clever and very clever ways to hold something or link something and all you need is a length of rope or string or something.
But at the same time, I've absolutely no interest in looking up about knots and learning their many varieties and many uses.

Due to a recent and ongoing physical infirmity I am somewhat limited in activity, so I have taken up learning how to tie some knots from The Handbook of Knots and Splices by Charles Gibson. Watch out now, I can tie a bowline hitch, a tautline hitch, and a fisherman's knot, and feel most powerful.
