How did I not know that you had a Youtube channel before???  Subscribed now. 

Most of the plafond knot variants that I have in my archives are ice flower (interlaced overhand) based.

Here's some square/rectangular variants (https://bbs.zhongguojie.org/thread-229031-1-1.html)

Here's one I'm trying to decipher (https://bbs.zhongguojie.org/thread-229348-1-1.html)

For knots that are more THK based, look to lock knots (锁结).  I've made a few but not enough to understand the root characteristics in order to make original variations.

After a quick googling, there is pretty much nothing in English on lock knots.  Here's one of my series on lock knots on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/p/CTq4sFVrEvq/)

Here's some lock knot based eye candy (https://www.zhongguojie.org/thread-229198-1-1.html)

This one is closer to what you are doing (https://bbs.zhongguojie.org/thread-232159-1-1.html)

Here's a really clear instruction set for the 6 eared lock knot (https://bbs.zhongguojie.org/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=15429)

These 2 explicitly make the connection between THK and lock knots (https://bbs.zhongguojie.org/thread-229031-1-1.html, https://bbs.zhongguojie.org/thread-229010-1-1.html)
