Summary
[edit]Ornamental configuration of four mutually interlinked trefoil knots or triquetras, for a total of 24 crossings. This can be extended as an indefinitely-repeating pattern (see http://katlas.math.toronto.edu/wiki/Image:Trefoils-interlinked-ornamental.png ). Compare File:Three-trefoils-15crossings.svg .
