Celtic Knotwork: This intricate design is a simplified representation of traditional Celtic knotwork. The ornament with four interconnected knots consists of two distinct lines or paths that extend infinitely in both directions. Begin at a point where a knot intersects the circular edge, then follow the path along the knots. Continue tracing until you reach the opposite side of the circle, having successfully navigated two out of the four connected knots.
