(l) Prismatic mesh: This kind of decorative mesh is the simplest one, shaped like a combination of each prismatic block. More regular.
(2) Wheat ear net: There are two types of decorative nets. Its main characteristic is that it has a strong sense of rhythm and can form a certain sense of movement.
(3) Crack net: This kind of decorative net is shaped like cracks on the back of a turtle. It is more random and has no rules to follow. It is suitable for irregular shapes.
In addition to playing a decorative role in a piece of paper-cutting, the decorative net also serves as a connection between patterns.
