Abstract

When drawing knots, practitioners tend to present their simplest projections. This paper investigates what constitutes a “nice” knot drawing and how this may be measured, and describes a simple method for identifying which face in a knot’s Gauss code to choose as perimeter in order to yield a “nice” drawing.
