Here is one of my more recent works being displayed at Ft Campbell KY in the main PX at one of my friends vendor booths.
At the top starting with the braid, I used 6 strands to make a 6 stranded braid. Then I folded the braid in half and lashed it together with a clove hitch to temporarily secure the braid together so I could make the next knot. 
I then tyed a 10 byte Matthew Walker Knot which gave me the leads for the Star Knot that is of 10 bytes, then I tyed a sennit braid to the right for a length, then I lashed the 10 strands down on the sennit braid about 1.5 inches and walled to the left and then after the wall I brought all strands left over 4 and under 1 creating a variated diamond knot. 
Then I tied another Star Knot, 
Then I tied a triple rim Star Knot, 
Then I tied a Matthew Walker Knot, 
Then to finish the lanyard I went ahead and unwound the line. 
Hope everyone enjoys it...
