The following examples were created using the Celtic Knot Font:

This invitation is an example of one of the ways that you can use the Celtic Knot Font in printed materials. This wedding invitation was created for some friends who were having a Renaissance style Wedding. The Filled and Outline Styles of the Font were used to create the border. The 2 styles align perfectly because of the great precision that was used in creating both of them. The subtle design in the center was also created with the Outline Style.

These embellishments were created with the Font and then given the appearance of silver in Photoshop.

This wedding invitation has an interlaced border made with the Font.

What is the Celtic Knot Font?

I have studied hundreds of Celtic knots and dozens of tutorials on how to make them. I have taken these knots and the techniques to make them and have distilled them down into a set of standard elements. I took those elements and converted them into a font.

Why a font?

The reason is simple. Most people do not have the expensive drawing programs necessary to create these knots. Ready-made clip-art is fine if you want a limited number of designs that are already used by hundreds of other people, but if you want to create knots of your own design you have to learn to use a drawing program and spend many hours working with it just to create the most basic designs. But not any more! I have done the hard part for you. All you have to do is put the pieces together! Every piece is drawn to an accuracy of better than 0.00001 inches. That means that each piece will line up perfectly with the next piece. There are only 3 styles of edges on all of the pieces. If you can just match one side with the next you can create thousands of different knots.

Basic knots:

All of the basic pieces which you need to create a Celtic knot are located conveniently in one corner of you computer keyboard:

I have arranged the parts so that they are easy to find and easy to remember. See how this block of 9 keys makes a square (well, OK, it 's really a parallelogram, but I'm trying to keep this simple). The corners of this square make the corners of a knot. The sides make the sides of knots and the middle makes....you guessed it, the middle of a knot.

If you type each row of three keys followed by the Enter key, the Celtic Knot Font will make this pattern:

As you can see, it makes a nice square Celtic knot. Let's get a little more fancy. If we type more of the letters that make the top edge, the middle section, and the bottom edge we can extend the knot like this:

See how the "a" key makes the left side and the "d" key makes the right side? Watch this:

Using these two keys will make a vertical break in the weave. This is the basis of all Celtic Knotwork. Make a grid and introduce breaks into the grid to create a decorative pattern. Likewise we can use the "w" key and the "x" key to make horizontal breaks. Like this:

These examples were made using just 9 of the pieces available in the Celtic Knot Font. There over 200 different pieces available in the full font!

By assembling these pieces you can make thousands of different Celtic Knots.

The Font works on any PC or Mac, with no special software needed.
