Summary

Description

Simple decorative inline knots. Constructed entirely from circular arcs and 45° lines (and horizontal lines at the ends), while intersections are at 90° angles as far as possible. Top: Simple trefoil knot. Middle: Double-loop knot (equivalent to Image:Celtic-knot-twoloops-bigends.svg). Bottom: moderately-complex single-loop knot.

For a similarly-drawn shoe-tying knot, see Image:Shoelace knot.svg . For other decorative knots, see Image:Celtic-knot-basic.svg , Image:Celtic-knot-basic-linear.svg , Image:Bar-knot-basic-decorative.svg , and Image:Celtic-knot-basic-rectangular.png .

For variant forms of a basic (pseudo-)Celtic knotwork cross, see Image:Knotwork-cross.svg , Image:Knotwork-cross-multicolored.svg , and Image:Knotwork-cross-alternate.svg .
