thanks and sorry for all the misspelling on my post. So, is it basically like a four knot?

I think you mean the backword-forward knot (<, symbol in the pattern) and the forward-backward (>) knot. I'll try to explain it.

If you make a forward knot, you make 2 knot to the right. And you do the same with backword knots, but then to the left. If you make a backward-forward knot (<), you make one knot to the right, and one knot to the left.
When you make a forward-backward knot (>), you make one knot to the left and right.

Hope this makes sense.
