I’ve just released a new update for an old blender addon, bumping the version to 1.0.
The addon can now generate a much wider variety.
Check it out on github.
Celtic Knots 1.0 – Now with Twills

Blue Noise Particles
I’ve released a plugin generates a random arrangement of particles with a blue noise distribution. This is also known as Poisson Disk Sampling.
This distribution of particles guarantees no two particles are very near each other. It’s often considered a higher quality particle arrangement than Blender’s default uniform sampling. It’s particularly useful for organic arrangements, and randomly arranging meshes without collisions.
Celtic Knots
I’ve created a Blender plugin generates 3d beziers curves in elaborate “celtic” style knotwork, based off of a framework mesh. Tested with Blender 2.68a. It’s available on github.
Celtic Knots are a intricate decorative design found in Celtic and other cultures mosaics and manuscripts. The knots often include elaborate variations and unusual angles that the plugin does not attempt to create, so touching up the resulting path in blender may be necessary for some designs.
Refer to the tutorial for some instructions on how to use the plugin, and the gallery for some examples of what is possible.
