Pearl Bracelet with a Slider Closure

I have a photo of a bracelet that I would love how to make the "slider closure". I don't know if that is the correct name or not.

Is there any way you can help me with this?
The photo is not mine, it is an example of what I found as I was looking for instructions on how to do this.

Sliding Knot Closures
by: Christine Gierer

Hey Pat,

From the picture it looks like the maker used square knots tied over filler cords running in opposite directions.

This isn't exactly what you show in the picture, but I wrote a blog postabout a few similar sliding closures recently that you might want to check out too. I really like the one called the "triple knot closure". Scroll down towards the bottom of the post for some instructions on making that one.

Does that help?
