The Solomon’s Trellis Hat was inspired by the Celtic Solomon Knot and is derived from the X Knot cable pattern found in Norah Gaughan’s Sourcebook. I have had so much fun with this particular motif and variations of this motif. You can expect a variety of patterns derived from the X Knot. Thank you Norah, your creativity is amazing!
