Celtic Knitting Patterns
I'm making an IOU Christmas gift for my brother and I'd like to make something with a Celtic knot pattern. Can anyone suggest a web site or book. Thanks in advance.

Found this after a few pages of searching...and I think I've seen something here on this site that was a REALLY cool interlocked design, but I can't remember where it was...dang!

Good Luck,

Diane

I really like the pretzel braid in the Irish Aran pattern here. (Scroll down to green sweater on left for free PDF.)

I just made my sister a cabled scarf with the chart from Samus. It was a really fun cable to do, after a couple of pattern repeats I got to lose the chart because I could tell where all the cables were going.
