A messily drawn triquetra-like manifold

How it started:

I randomly scribbled some (2D) triquetras to depict some concepts for another project I am working on:

[Just ignore the written stuff in the photo.] I actually drew it as 2D. Yet I imagined this/a similar thing as 3D:

This was the result:

I attempted to depict the 2D projections of that 3D plotted manifold as well.

Drawing this manifold has helped me to gain new insights into how I could draw calabi-yau manifolds.
