Sorry I missed seeing this earlier. (I don’t always read the decorative knots section). The first post asked for the Ashley location. This cross knot appears several different places in ABoK, each with different names. [#808, 809, 1032, 1066, 1423] I also agree that scouts world-wide use it to tie neckerchiefs and call it the Friendship Knot. I first learned about the knot when I visited the famous scout camp called Gilwell Park just outside of London, and purchased a set of Woodbadge Beads there which were tied in this knot.
This knot can also be found in the book by George Russel Shaw called Practical and Ornamental Knots, 1924 (now inexpensively available from Dover). Shaw calls it the Japanese Crown Knot, but he mentions a museum showing many Japanese knots where it was labeled the Success Knot, and the connection to the word KANAU was mentioned.
