A trefoil knot
This knot is equivalent to the trefoil knot. You can compare the image with this other, that represents another diagram of the same knot. Viceversa, diagrams that differ from this one for a switch up/under of the crossings, can produce a trivial knot or the figure eight knot.
The image has been realized with the program KnotPlot.
