Hi! I'm brand new to this tribe, just wanted to say hello and let everyone know that i'm 1/4 irish, and very interested in celtic knotwork and interlacing artwork. I do a little of my own, and was wondering if there was anyone else out there with similar interest :)

Re: Celtic Knotwork and Interlacing

i had a brilliant book called 'Celtic Art - the methods of construction by George Bain' .
Extensively detailed, easily adaptable, a must for any practitioner. I've passed the book on to a more 'artful' cousin who does some brilliant Celtic knotwork. If you can get hold of a copy - enjoy!

Have you considered chiseling stone? I was curious if you could send me some robe samples of your robes. What I do to a sewing machine is torture- for it. ;) And a friend of mine does a lot of costuming for Anime stuff, but is not inclined to take commissions.
