I'm jumping in here kinda late, so may not be answering the correct question at this point. Although I believe point is knot variety used in Antique & Vintage Chinese necklaces?

I see basic Macrame knotting, on what you are calling "square knotting"and a macrame spiral pattern in the last few images. Sounds like you know this though?

This image off the internet of a reportedly Circa1900's Peking Glass Basketweave Glass necklace looks like it has the twisted cords, then is using the "basic" Macrame tying techniques...another example of the same as yours I believe (though NOT the OP's)
