Like so many knots, this one has several names. Here:Friendship knot,& Lanyard knot.
The trick of this knot is the tightening,form it to a cylinder while pulling the ends.

I am looking for information on a knot called the Diamond Hitch. This knot was used in the early days
for securing loads on pack horses and pack mules. In those days any person who professed to be a packer
and did not know how to "throw a diamond hitch" was considered to be a real "greenhorn". I hope
someone can help me with this knot. Thank you.

The diamond knot is the same as the Chinese button knot. If you tighten the two ends and leave no loop, it becomes a button.

known in the fashion industry as the Chinese button knot for coats and jackets.
Submitted by: WestPacSailor
If the two ends were passed down through the center of the carrick without going around the legs of the loop and then down through the center it would become a "Chinese Button Knot."

The diamond hitch is quite different from a diamond knot- the knot is used mainly for a button, in the case where the ends are passed through the middle to form the Chinese Button Knot. The Diamond Hitch is associated with a six-point pack, worn on the back or strapped to a mule. If you were to number the points of the pack 1-6, with 1 and 2 being the center and 3-6 beginning at the top left and rotating clockwise, you would begin by tying the end to point 1, looping it around 2 and back, and twisting the loop thus formed. Next pass the working end around 3, back through the loop, around 4, through the loop again, around six, and back to one. before tightening, grab a bend behind the loop in the part going from 4-6 and loop it over point 5. now you have a diamond hitch!
