I have been coveting some nursing necklaces since Lil'C has gotten REALLY REALLY good at removing my glasses. I have such bad eye sight that I do actually walk into walls/poles/chairs/stairs/etc. without them, and he can remove my glasses in about 10 seconds flat. That can become really dangerous.
I decided on a Hobby Lobby trip to pick up some
leather and a
glass pendant to DIY my own!
It is going to take me longer to make this post than it did to make the necklace!
 |
| Fold leather in half and pass through the center of the pendant |
 |
| cow hitch knot tightened |
 |
| Repeat the Half Hitch for the other end. This will allow the knots to slide. |
 |
| Pull the knots apart if you want your necklace smaller |
 |
| Or pull them together if you want the necklace longer |
Ok.. this post took me MUCH MUCH longer than the making the necklace did!
Very nice. Thanks for the tutorial. I am terrible with knots! ;)

I don't understand the half hitch knot. Do you do one strand at a time or both?

ReplyDeleteYou knot one end onto the middle of the other and then knot the other end on to the middle
ReplyDeleteOf the other. A onto the middle of B and then B to the middle of A
