I was catching up on the livestreams and watched the celtic knot today. Another background alternative is to remove it all by making it a pierced carving. I used it this way several years back when I made a love spoon as a wedding gift for my daughter. Wish I had Mary's drawing and carving tips for the knot when I made it. Mine was shaky at best. My sister is about to get married, so I'll have a chance to put Mary's tips into practice while making one for her.
