Shamrock of Celtic knots in a knotwork circle - Celtic shamrock coloring page

About this coloring page

This shamrock is made entirely of Celtic knotwork: each of the three heart-shaped leaves is a woven knot, the stem is a braid of interlaced bands, and the whole design sits inside a circle of knotwork with small knots at the top and bottom. Swirls fill the space between the leaves. It is one of the Celtic shamrock coloring pages for older kids and adults who enjoy patient, careful work. Greens and gold are traditional, but try alternating two colors along each band to see how the knots weave over and under. The round mandala of shamrocks and Celtic knots uses the same knots.
