Cord Used

I used one 7ft strand, and two 5ft with at least a foot of extra length on each strand when finished.

Beginning

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Start in the middle of all three strands.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Fold the long piece over the shorter two.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Pull the strand in the front to your right.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Pull the one in the back underneath and to your left.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Pull the left strand over the right strand.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Turn the loop to the side and pull up until you have a round loop.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Pull the strand out on each side.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Take the cord on the right side and pull it into the front and put it towards the left.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Take the left cord and put it over the cord in front, take it behind, and out it through the loop on the right side. This is the same way you would make a basic Solomon bar.

Take the red and blue cord on the left and cross them over the two on the right.

Take the right white cord and put it over the two cords on the right.

Put the rope over the two, bring it under, then trough on the left of the first rope.

Take the strand, move it to the right, go under the two strands, around, and then through the loop you just made.

Pull tight.

Now do the Lark's Head on the other side.

Continue with the Lark's Head knot on each side.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Cross the two red and blue strands again.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Continue with the Larks Head on each side.

14, 5:28 PM.jpg
Continue making knots until you reach your desired length.

Make part of a Solomon's Bar on the bottom.

This will be the knot that holds the bracelet together.

Make a backwards loop with the blue cord.

Make a half loop with the red cord and put it in the corner of the blue loop.
