Hello,

Can I take a rectangular strip of paper and make it into a loop that looks like this edge on ?

Sorry, something got screwed up there.

The edge on view is a rhombus thus

Make it into a loop using sticky tape, and make four equidistant folds.

Yes but you’ll have to draw a line of stars on it.

Sorry we seem to have a misunderstanding. Those stars should have been on three separate lines, with the resulting shape being a rhombus.

Yes, but a starch or glue would be required to stiffen it at the correct angles.

Well it would depend on what kind of paper it is, I suppose.

Yes.

Make the loop exactly as you would make a loop that looks square end on and then just bend the corners a bit to turn the square into a rhombus.
