Curved Surface from Points

I am trying make a surface that will pass through each set of 4 divided points on each of the circles. Another option is to create horizontal interpolated curves through each horizontal set of points on each grid level and do the same vertically (in this example it would end up as 3 horizontal curves and 4 vertical).

I have tried the "surface from points" method but with no luck. I have also tried some tree branching stuff but that hasn't worked either.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Surface from points only works when you have a grid of points: implying that the number of points in each row is the same, and there are several such rows through which the surface will be interpolated sequentially.

In your case, your question is a bit vague: you divide each circle into 4 points, so if you were to connect all your points horizontally, you would end up with 9 horizontal curves (3 for each circle) and 12 verticals (3 for each circle again). But you mention only 3 & 4 curves. Is this what you want the surface to look like (Blue Lines)?
