New Knotwork Crosses

Chester Cross

Lukus Cross

Lukus Cross Variation 1

Lukus Cross Variation 2

Lukus Cross Variation 3

The Lukus Cross is based on the Chester Cross (as depicted in the splash screen to this site) and accomplished by extending the arms of the cross by one unit in all directions.  The resulting cross however is not a single cord knot and Variation 1 solves this problem. Variation 2 is symmetrical in the top three arms and leaving the base as is. Variation 3 is symmetrical and balanced by introducing a new Fish Tail cord element and using twists (for a total of 12) instead of 3 cord plaits. All the variations are single cord knots and incorporate the unique cross inside of a cross design.
