Elongated Diamond knot

(1/2) > >>

Pidge:
I have been making the anchor in the front of the Encyclopedia of Knots and fancy rope work. At the top below the large ring is an elongated diamond knot. Would anyone know where I can get some clear instructions for this knot as the pictures on page 321 of the book are very hard to see the under and overs of the knot.
Thanks to anyone who can help. :)

KnotMe:
The first thing that popped to mind when you say "elongated diamond knot" http://chineseknotting.org/button/howto2/, but if you're looking for a multistrand version, this is probably not it...

Bud gave us a tutorial here:

Hope this helps.

Pidge:
Thanks for the replies, I will give these a go and see how they look. Here is a photo of the actual knot.

It looks very much like a 4 bight, 5 part turks head to me. How certain are you that it is a diamond?
