On the Topology of Celtic Knot Designs

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We derive formulas for counting the number of strands in a variety of knotwork designs inspired by traditional Celtic designs, including rectangular panels, circular borders, rectangular borders, and half frames. We include graphic examples for each of these types of designs.
