Constructed using a grid method, Celtic knots are complete loops without any beginning or end. Early on, these designs were used mainly for decorative purposes. Over time, people began interpreting them as the crossing of physical and spiritual paths, and as symbols for eternity and the endurance of life, love and faith. Celtic knots are also very popular designs for tattoos. Just sayin'.
