Step-by-Step guide to a holiday ornament with pictures.
A friend of mind is doing a virtual family get-together and they’re going to be doing this little diy ornament together. How fun is that?!
⋒ eBook with knots and its step-by-step instructions with pictures here.
TIPS
- Please read through all the instructions before starting. This is to understand the general steps to prepare for.
- If you need, review the knots used: Larks Head Knot, Clove Hitch Knot from the left, and the Overhand Knot.
- It may be helpful to have an anchor for beginners. You can use a cork board and pin your project down as you knot. And as you rotate your project, you can unpin and reposition as needed. Tape works well too.
- If you have multiple colors, you can create your own pattern in step 4. I.e. Interchange colors as you attach them onto the filler cord.
- If you’re a brand new beginner, go slowly and don’t get frustrated! You can always untie and redo.
- You shouldn’t be able to see the filler cord through your knots.
- Filler cord should be held taut as you knot onto the filler cord. (From step 7 and on)
If you have any questions or any suggestions for a different pattern, leave me a comment below! Again, I have kits in different colors and can customize the color choices, so check out my Etsy store for this kit. A PDF document with all the tips and steps will also be provided with the kit.
Happy Knotting!
