Celtic Knot angle

[Padre]

What degree angle do you use for your celtic knots?

For my first knot I used 65 degrees and the knot came out great, but it's a little 'flat.'

Thanks for your help!

I do a 60 degree and I think it looks fine. In the library someone had a tutorial and that is the angle they gave.

 

[asyler]

i do mine on 45 deg.

i do mine on 45 deg.

Ditto!!
I find that the 45 deg. makes for a more rounded look.

I do the 45 for mine too.

Thank you!

you can do it at any angle you wish, tutorial in library has a formula for showing height (or length) of the knot for angle
