Materials:
- 5mm Premium Rope (Natural and Rust)
Hey guys! I have two variations of a fun circular pattern for you today. The first uses the square knot and half hitch, and the second uses the square knot, half hitch and reef knot. I’m using 5mm premium rope in the colours natural and rust for this tutorial. Both are available in my Etsy Shop or on my website - see the description for links. If you are enjoying my tutorials, a quick like, comment and subscribe really helps me out. Thanks so much. Let’s get started.
Cut two pieces of 5mm rope, each piece is 5 ft long. Fold each piece in half and attach each piece to your dowel using Lark’s Head knots.
Tie a square knot. Tie a half hitch on the left side of your work and then another on the right. Repeat that process to create a design of your desired length. End with a square knot.
I’ll show you one more time using the rust rope.
To create the second variation start your design again with a square knot. Again tie two half hitches - one on the left side of your work and another on the right. Using the two middle cords tie a reef knot. Tie two more half hitches. Repeat that process to create a design fo your desired length. End with a square knot.
Thanks for watching!
