How to tie an Eldredge Knot (Instructional Video)

This is a knot I made during a fit of boredom one night.


Credit to SimplyJustHen. I'd have never even toyed around if I'd not seen his video. And Ediety for the concept of making a knot with the narrow end. ;)

Man Ijust did it, you explain it a little more dificult than it is, its just bring it across from one side to the other like going between trees, if you invented it then your a genius. Thanks for sharing it.

Yeah apologies. I'm usually excessively verbose. Bad habit I picked up from the powers that be making me drag my classes out.

i have been trying to tie the Merovingian knot well for a few days and it always ends up looking pretty bad, saw this and thought i woudl try it out. looks great, however when i made mine I added an extra over lap and then was able to take the little end piece and tuck it behindone of the other overlaps (on the back side), the knot looks amazing and it is actually a finished knot that holds together.

Sweet. You should post up a video. I've toyed with it a bunch, but I can never manage to knot the thing without throwing of the overlaps.

This is a great knot. Even better is the Alexander Knorr version that turns it into an actual knot. But this is great too!

Dude I have just spent hours trying to tie a tie like this, I had it all envisioned in my head, and lo and behold, I go on youtube to see what other knots there are out there and you beat me to it. Its honestly exactly what I've been trying to do. So much for getting credit for it huh?

[blink234234234]

if you left it at 2 overlaps, it woulda been an atlantic/ edeity knot

Hey man, awesome knot, I like this one better than the flipped windsor (matrix). I think I'll prefer to secure the end with a pin too. Thanks heaps and I'll be sure to remember the name for when I teach other people :D

this was shown in the matrix reloaded, morpheus was wearing it, the only difference is you went over it twice. sorry bud, it was invented b4 you thought of it.

Or a piece of scotch tape, super glue, etc.

Thanks for posting it.

If you carefully take it off you'll notice the small pocket at the back. You could fold it in half and tuck it right in. It may look a little off but it will probably be sturdier than just raping it around the neck lace. Or if you like to keep the symmetry AND the sturdiness you could add a safety pin or something like that.
