Description

My method to build knots in the Celtic or Arabic manner is explained on this picture. The knot is associated with a planar graph. On each middle edge, place a crossing. Connect this bits to one another following a maze method. Decide the upper/lower threads according to a guide. Inflate each thread to fill up its space.
