Diamonds adorn the necks of Hidden Mountain's populace

At Atlantia's Spring Coronation, I had the opportunity to speak with His Excellency Thylacine Aquila, Baron of Hidden Mountain, about his kumihimo patterns. He prefers a 16-strand diamond pattern in black and white. He often incorporates one strand in a third color, depending on the purpose of the cord. This third color makes a dot in the center of the white diamond. I've used a red thread in the cord I'm working now. Baron Thylacene will use red when the cord is going to a  warrior, blue for an A&S award or black for a service award.

Here is the layout of the loom to achieve this pattern:

32,1=B,B.
4,5=W,W.
8,9=R,W.
12,13=W,B.
16,17=B,B.
20,21=W,B.
24,25=B,W.
28,29=W,W.

I'm using #5 Perle cotton, which produces cord of about 3/16" diameter.

In Service to the Dream...
