Thank you Molly!
I just want to acknowledge your discovery and that you share it with us all.  You probably understand the frustration of many an inspired artist on a beautiful knot or pattern - only to discover that it is copyrighted! 
What you have done is open up more creativity channels for me!

Molly,
I purchased your book back in the summer and loved creating the knots with paper in the summer classes.

 

I was invited to teach the Celtic knot project to 4 classes at the Lowry High School (130 students) in Winnemucca, Nevada.  The results were great, the kids enjoyed the challenge of the project and were planning on doing more. I posted them on our Winn Art Room page of Artsonia.com  I also created a lesson plan and posted on Artsonia. In the plans I cited your book as the source.


 
This technique has worked with all ages of students here in Nevada. So far, first graders, to highschoolers, to adults, college art classes and quilters. Thanks Molly for a great little book.
