Tricolor mottling in Group 1 is anomalous.
The pink in Group 1 is also unusual.
P37 has a cord end emerging out of last single knot, but pendant continues. 2 strings tied together?
First single knot in the 10s place of P28 is in Z direction; all others are S direction.
There is a color in some pendants that is somewhere between dark brown and "black."
