Fender type paracord lanyard keychain fob...

Some of the knotty guys on a couple of forums made some crown sinnets and went back up over them with twists(half knots) and they looked pretty cool.  Reminds me of fender type rope/knot work, that I've usually seen done with hitching.
Here's one, with a Schmuckatelli skull bead, that I tried using coyote tan/desert camo paracord. It takes about twice as much cord to make, but can provide a beefier grip to a lanyard or keychain fob.

What kind of knot have you used making this one?

@Anonymous, I tied a round crown sinnet down from the starting loop, then when I had the length I wanted, I paired off the four working strands and tied half knots(Solomon twist) alternating with each pair back up over/around the crown sinnet.
