What Is Celtic Knotwork? Discover This Ancient Irish Art at Cashel Library.
Celtic knotwork is a decorative art form made from continuous lines or bands woven over and under one another to create intricate interlacing patterns. These striking designs are closely associated with early Irish art and can be found in illuminated manuscripts, including the Book of Kells, as well as on carved stone monuments and historic metalwork.
Discover how these beautiful patterns are constructed at a free Celtic Knotwork art workshop for adults in Cashel Library.
