The Celtics receive a lot of fame for their decorative knots. The Triquetra, a three cornered knot, being the most recognizable. The Triquetra has come to symbolize many threefold balance concepts such as the Triple Goddess or the Holy Trinity.

However, the Celts were not the only ones designing endless knots. Cord wrapping and weaving influenced artist and craftsmen in a variety of cultures across the world.

In India the Sri Vatsa, or Buddha Knot as its better known in the west, is a meditation tool symbolizing unity and eternity.

Thats all the knotty ebru I have for now, but I look forward to trying more knot designs down the line.
