Diamond Stitch, Feathered Up and Down Stitch

"Double Choc with Sprinkles" : Diamond Stitch, Feathered Up and Down Stitch
Lol, went and researched Sprinkles on Google and copied the colours of the original British "Hundreds and Thousands" sprinkles. Got to get these things right :-) As usual this geometric stitch would be happier on counted fabric  but I did draw out my measurements to place to stitches. Working on having more even tension. Got the diamond stitch wrong at first doing loops to hold it working back to the left rather than knots. The knots makes a more precise diamond of course but is more fiddly to do.
