A double square knot can be made using four strings, thus doubling the size of the keychain made. Again the process is done by weaving the ends alternately.
Spiral Knot
 An example of a spiral knot keychain The spiral knot can be achieved by completing the actions of a square knot, but instead of crossing the ends straight over, the ends should be crossed diagonally. This causes the colors to spiral up the keychain instead of creating straight lines of color.
