Diamond wrapped handlebars

A while ago someone post a great thread on using two colors of cotton tape to wrap the bars. The effect was great. Does anyone have the link?

Rivendell has a link here on the Diamond Wrap. I remember doing it many years ago with the directions from Bicycle Mag, and it looked good, but getting around the brakes took a couple of trys.

Thanks looks great. I am thinking on wrapping my up a set of moustache bars with it.
