@kk_gymnast zigag patterns like this can be tricky to start because they're not really symmetrical. But for this, the center knot on line 2 would be the tip of the triangle. Sometimes I find it easier to print the pattern and draw out my triangle or teardrop shape so I don't lose my place when sorting my strings in the right order. For a teardrop, the lower point would meet in the center at line 6.
