Here you go:

I don't know much about surface topology, but I think I kind of
cheated since i created it from 4 different surfaces.
(I used the formulas i found here (the competition):

The 'figure 8' klein bottle parametrization works with one surface.
You can easily find these formulas (in copy-paste ready format), but
it doesn't have the popular klein bottle shape.
Apparently, the parametrization for the popular shape is a very long
formula, I think wikipedia has it, but you can't just copy-paste, you
have to translate it to something grasshopper understands (It's really
long). The alternate text of wikipedia's formula images may save some
time, but it's still not copy/paste ready.
