How to Draw a Celtic Knot Circle

I've recently got into drawing Celtic Knots and in today’s video share the method I’ve been using for drawing circular borders.

I also have a watercolour celtic knot tutorial over on my other channel:

SUPPLIES

Pens:

I like uni-pin waterproof fine line drawing pens. I use every size from 0.03 to 0.8 so I buy them in sets of multiple sizes whenever I see an offer on them!

What timing - I spent ages today trying to draw one of these, it was doing my head in! Your video makes it very clear so I’ll have another go tomorrow, thank you! ☺️

Awesome, so I'm actually using this tutorial as a frame of reference for wire weaving. I'll Def be watching your other video. Thanks!

Wonderful! Thank you for sharing this. I can try it once I manage to sort out the 6 sided one from a few months back 😁

I tried this a few times and then used circles instead of diamonds. I found it very difficult to make the diamonds precisely, or even roughly LOL the same sizes. I am improving, a bit, on smooth lines. I can’t imagine how the old Celts did this without erasers! Thank you for this video.
