An alternate repetition style for HRTR centers in origami tessellations

So, you’ve learned a few tessellation starts in #AdventOfTess, but how do you extend them outwards? Especially if you’re new to tessellations, folding twists densely together can be problematic, so how can you avoid the density and still get nice repeats? With an expansion of the HRTR tiling, you can take the centers and repeat them exactly at whatever spacing apart you want - and also get more flexibility with which triangle twist you fold! I’ll use a 48-fold triangle grid on a hexagon to demonstrate this repetition style. To learn six starts that you can apply this method to, check out Advent of Tess:
