How to Make a Sliding Knot

Step 2: Set Up the Strands

Lay one end of the necklace or bracelet pointing down, and the other end pointing up (see pic to the left).

Cut a second strand of cording.  A foot should be long enough.  Lay it underneath the two ends of the necklace or bracelet as shown.

Step 3: Start Tying

Now start tying the square knot sennit. You'll use the two ends of your necklace or bracelet as your filler cords.

Step 4: Tie Off

On the underside of your square knot sennit, tie a tight overhand knot.

Step 5: Glue and Trim

Use some heavy duty glue on the knot and let it dry.

After the glue is dry, trim the ends of the knotting cord.  Add some more glue to the newly cut ends to prevent unraveling.  Let dry.

The Finished Sliding Knot.

To tighten, pull on the knots.  To loosen, pull on the necklace or bracelet.
