@MimiPlayz I can't remember the exact measurements but string L was around 3 m 40 cm half that if your not doing a loop, others that were around 3m 20cm were strings J and I the others around 2.9/3 m hope that was of some help

Thanks @vikas_daga. I'm really not sure how many hours I put into it in total. I would maybe do around and hour of knotting a day for two weeks. Got my eye on a few more of your parents 😄

Absolutely beautiful again Simon, so nice to see some of these big designs become reality, and especially good when it's a really skilled person doing it. This is pretty striking I think. Yes the starting triangle is really hard to gauge with so many strings. I'd love to see a photo of all the big ones you've done together, with something for scale. Quite an impressive body of work. What was your total time on this including prep?

Hi @vikas_daga hope you don't mind me tagging you when I have made one of your fantastic patterns. This was my first and possibly last 65 string piece, I really enjoyed it. Tied the triangle start to tight giving the top triangle a slight dish but apart from that I'm happy with how it turned out

Sorry, below comment should read 159486, not 158846. Moderator or admin, some kind of limited window to edit comments would be helpful.

Just to clarify, if you look at 158846, you'll see the large diamonds that anchor the design at the top and bottom do not actually close, which means it's not clear how one should handle a triangle start (assuming you would make the two big diamonds the start and end points, which seems like the obvious choice). In this new implementation, there are clear and complete start and end points, with the required information to do a triangle start.

This pattern is similar to 159846, but it has been updated to include a proper starting and ending point for triangle ends, with a clear indication of the string order, which was not present in 159846. That pattern can still be made fine with triangle ends, but you will have to extrapolate how to do it. Here it is clear.

Just a note that this is symmetrical on the long axis around the center at line 95. The entire pattern is shown above - line 1 to 188
