Knotwork Socks
Description: Celtic High Cross Decorative Knotwork is a modern design of ancient symbolism. In Ireland, it is believed that Saint Patrick combined the symbol of Christianity with the sun to give pagan followers an idea of the importance of the cross. Celtic crosses may have had origins in the early Coptic church used in early Christian Egypt. The Celtic cross is a form of Christian cross featuring a nimbus or ring that emerged in Ireland, France, and Great Britain in the Early Middle Ages © 10 November 2023, 12:48:43 Tracey Harrington Simpson
Description: In this work I tried to combine the main symbols of the Thor, God of Thunder, Protector of Midgard. Mjolnir, Trinity Knot and Lightning. Hammer Mjolnir - the oldest and most famous symbol of Thor, the god of thunder and lightning, who protects gods and people from giants and hostile forces. The image of Mjolnir and the hammer-shaped pendants have been used as protective amulets in Northern Europe since ancient times, and after the adoption of Christianity, people for a long time still wore a cross and an amulet - a copy of Mjolnir. Also, one of the Thor's symbols is Triquetra or Trinity Knot - as a symbol of continuity of life.

The Tree of Life holds great importance in both Celtic and Norse culture and Mythology. It is also a part of many of the world´s other ancient myths, legends, and cultures. Yggdrasil and Mímameıðr is the name the Norse people used while the ancient Celts called it Crann Bethadh.
Description: Based on a compilations of images of Cernunnos, I've re/created this version in my own style. Cernunnos is holding two torcs-- a type of Celtic jewelry-- and is wearing a large brooch.

Description: This Celtic knot is one of my best selling designs because it is simple yet complex. The interlocking Celtic Knots design started in Britain in the Middle ages. The intricate designs are also referred to as "Mystic" or "Endless" knots because they symbolize infinite life. When a design such as this one has three points, it can symbolize mind, body and spirit. Another interpretation of the three points is the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. In any case, enjoy these timeless designs and be part of history. Available on t-shirts, tanks, hoodies, sweats, coffee mugs, phone cases, stickers and more.
Description: The boar has played a prominent role in Celtic and Germanic culture since antiquity. This image was inspired by a well known Pictish carving stone dating to the 7th century. The Orkney Islands in Scotland take their name from Celtic word for boar. The boar was also used by the Vikings with the mythological Gullinbursti being the war pig of Norse god Freyr.
Description: Odin hung from Yggdrasil for 9 days and 9 nights to learn the magic of the runic alphabet. To symbolize this there are 9 moons and 9 suns on the piece as well as the whole runic alphabet. The centre features Odin accompanied by his two ravens Huginn and Munin. There is also a Sunset and Night Sky Variation on my TeePublic store.
Description: Mjolnir, the Hammer of Thor is undeniably one of the most popular fictional objects in popular culture today. It has been helped in no small part to that position by the spectacular success of the Avengers movie series and especially the popularity of Thor, the Norse god who wields it. The Mjolnir/Mjölnir is actually part of the Norse mythology of the peoples of Scandinavia and tales of its creations and marvelous feats are about a thousand years old. The name, ‘Mjolnir’ is commonly accepted to mean ‘Lightning’ in the capacity as the hammer of the God of Thunder but the root word is more similar to the words ‘grind’ or ‘crush’.
Description: The Norse/Germanic god of thunder, Thor was one of the most popular deities in the Medieval world. His popularity continues to the present day. In fact, you may even say that Thor is seeing a resurgence of popularity, and not just because of the Marvel movies that portray him as a sort of awkward frat boy from outer space. TV shows such as the Vikings, Game of Thrones, The Last Kingdom, etc. have stirred an interest in Thor and the other gods of old. So most people are now familiar with Thor and his mighty hammer that he uses to smash frost giants back to the icy depths from whence they came.
