my aunt taught me this knot when she visited this summer, and after some practice i used it in a bracelet. it's really easy to learn but kinda hard to make them perfect.
post questions/comments below! i'd love any feedback :)

You Will Need (2 things)

  • Hemp Cord (as much as you need but it's probably gonna be less than you think!)
  • Bead(s)

Steps (6 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    get your hemp/any type of cord you're using!
    you can use several strings or just one if you're just starting out, so decide what you want and tie a simple knot at the top.
    you won't need much if you're making the bracelet

  2. 2

    make a loop with one string...

  3. 3

    overlap the other string under the loop and over the end part of the loop's tail

  4. 4

    and through the bit that the loop string and the other string make
    (not the best description i know, haha but take a look at the picture)

  5. 5

    pull the end of the other string under itself (to make another loop), and then over the first loop

  6. 6

    tighten it, use more cords, add beads, whatever! keep going to make a bracelet, using however many knots to make it as long as you want, and you're done :)
