Beginning: "needlework bundle": wrapping in brown and white stripes of ~.5cm ea. Wrapped over a core of cords.
This is a canuto khipu, with all of its cords tied in bundles to the primary cord.
This khipu has been reconstructed using information from Jon Clindaniel's DASH thesis notes at Harvard. Cord cluster information is missing and has been defaulted to one cord per cluster.
