Description

Four intersecting rounded rectangles forming an alternating 12-crossing link of mathematical knot theory.

For an alternative multicolored visual representation, see http://katlas.math.toronto.edu/wiki/Image:4squares-12crossings.png

If the 4 outer crossings are joined together (and the outermost arcs discarded), then you get the File:8crossing-symmetrical.svg knot, while if the 4 middle crossings are joined together (and everything outwards of them discarded), then you get the "Solomon's knot" configuration...
