Design for an interlaced geometric pattern. The overall shape describes a vertical rectangle with triangular notches in all four sides. The whole figure is build up out of two large and two small overlapping figures, of which the outline is marked by thin straps. The two larger figures create the overall shape and structure of the pattern. Within the rectangle they form, the two smaller figures are placed on the top and bottom. The two places where their outline meets the straps of the two larger figures on the central, vertical axis are marked by a knot with two small loops.
