2-Celtic Weaving

1) Draw a cinch horizontal line and run the distort / zig zag filter

Set zig zag zag to smooth to get rounded bumps

---

2) Stroke the line 16pts thick.
Then copy and paste in front a white line 6pts thick

It would be a good time to set up your layers now.
The Top Layer Interweave will be important in step 4.

---

3) Use baseline shift on the bottom type to move it outside the circle.
(shift-option down arrow on selected type)

---

4) Select overlapping vector path with hollow selection tool, copy to clipboard and paste in front and move it into the top layer (Stroke this 16pt purple). Paste in front of this selection and leave it 6pt white. (-C, then -F, move to top layer, -F)

---

5) Since the purple line is stroked thicker and not straight, you may have a color leak of purple showing. To clean this up, you need to shorten the edges of purple (eraser tool on purple line edges to cut them back)

---

6) In artwork mode select the 2 overlapping paths you just created and dragcopy them to the next location. Use the transform again command to make the last 3 copies you need. You may want to use the magnifying glass to get in close to do this accurately.
(Select the 2 items in top layer, magnify, -Y, option dragcopy to next location, -D)
