After you make a knot, go back over it and work out any twists in the cord and that should alleviate the problem.Stormdranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04291715625908183030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17884734.post-3851493227490840072007-03-07T11:57:00.000-05:002007-03-07T11:57:00.000-05:00Could you help me with a tip how to prevent the si...Could you help me with a tip how to prevent the sinnet from turning into a spiral?

From there you use the two cords to make the Josephine knots, you can put them close together or space them out. When you get the desired length, tie an overhand knot or a lanyard knot, and that'll fit thru the initial loop as a means of securing the bracelet.Stormdranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04291715625908183030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17884734.post-11533631300165447842007-03-05T15:46:00.000-05:002007-03-05T15:46:00.000-05:00Love your work, and would love to get some tips on...Love your work, and would love to get some tips on making the all black sinnet on the right.<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/><BR/>FranziUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07401247784268487689noreply@blogger.com
