Colourful Key Chains-Rainbow
Inspired by Lydia chen's book about "The complete book of chinese knotting" my interest in making a set of colourful panchang knot key chains has originated.By having different colours of threads for the knots the different rooms can be identified, additionally a colour can also indicate the direction of the room, example-green for east and so on
