Q1 - What Island symbol looks similar to the three piece spiral? I think the answer to this is The Isle of Man. Apologies if I'm wrong.

Q2 = Where did Archibald Knox found the 'Knox Guild of Craft & Design'? I think this one might be Tromode, Isle of Man.

You're quite right....

"Three piece spirals were the starting signs of Christianity and were used by the early monks, probably associating the 3 trinities~father, son & holy ghost. They look similar to the Isle of Man symbol today...." - from the Baxters website.

This is incorrect... (he was born there)

"Later that year Knox leaves England for Philadelphia where he was the founder of the 'Knox Guild of Craft & Design'...." - also from the Baxters website.

So the correct answers are:

1. The Isle of Man
2. Philadelphia
3. Fish and onions (from Baxters again)
