at each step, obtaining a "double-wound" triangle that has two vertices superimposed at each corner point and two edges along each line segment.

Regular polygons as faces of polyhedra
A uniform polyhedron is a polyhedron with regular polygons as faces such that for every two vertices there's an isometry mapping one into the other (just as there's for a regular polygon).
The remaining convex polyhedra with regular faces are known as the Johnson solids.
