In this video you will learn four of the most common knots used in jewelry making. They include the overhand knot, the double knot, the surgeon's knot, and the adjustable (or sliding) knot. These knots takes little time to learn, so get your string ready!

Materials list:
- String to practice with. I am using a white nylon cord.

  • Very helpful! Thank you!

  • Thank you.

  • i like your videos - you keep them simple and concise. however, in the one about 4 different knots, it would be helpful to me (as a beginner) to know what application each knot might be used for in jewelry making. thanks!

  • very useful thanks!

  • thank you that was very very very helpful

  • YAY FOR YOU!!!

  • Oh THANK GOD FOR YOU. Seriously, i've only been introduced to macrame/knotting recently (i got a dvd and it has a few of the basic knots) and i have gotten the square and spiral friendship bracelet, the fancy sliding knot and the half hitch...but this sliding knot i just could not get the hand of it...until now. There are other youtube videosteaching it and i have watched many, but yours is the first one to have helped me finish my bracelet. I have it on right now as i'm typing this.

  • OMG GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED? I WAS GONNA GET SOME STRING FOR THIS AND I WAS HUMMING I LOVE U LIKE A LOVE SONG AND I STEPPED IN MY DOGS POOP! I WAS BAREFOOT!

  • OMG I FINALLY FOUND A WAY HOW TO KNOT THANKS SO MUCH YOUR THE BEST!
