This pattern was very fun to do 🙂 I would use longer black strings than color. I ran a little short on the dark grey color I used to make the diamond part of the pattern, bur the colors had plenty of length.
The size of the pattern was intimidating (I am still learning, I posted a picture and you can see that lol!) but once you’ve done one section it’s easy to figure out the pattern on your own. The knots are repetitive, just not the colors.
@alicekoks there are lots of videos on it on YouTube. MashaKnots has a good one. If you would rather read something, you can also check out the tutorial I wrote.
