How to make it

4 steps

Step 1 Step 1

Cut 15 strings at 35cm each. Separate them into 5 sets of three strings. Tape the ring to the table whilst working on your piece so you can stop it moving around too much.

Step 2 Step 2

We will begin with the first section, we will attach 3 sets of string to the ring using a lark heads knot. When securing the strings make all of the inner strings slightly longer by 2cm than the 2 outer strings. Apart from the middle string which will be equal. - Larks head knot: fold your string in half, pass the folded string end under the ring you'll tie your knot onto making a loop, pass the string ends through and pull tightly to secure. Follow by making a square knot using the 4 middle cords - Half square knot: Bring the left working cord (the outer string) over both filler cords (the 2 inner strings) and bring the right working cord under the filler cords and pass into the loop of the left working cord. Repeat from the right side mirror, then you will have a square knot.

Step 3 Step 3

For the next step you will use the Diagonal Double Half Hitch Knot. - Diagonal Double Half Hitch Knot: Using the left string (holding cord), place it diagonally over the 2 working cords. From left to right, pass the working cords over and under the left string (holding cord) the pull and repeat. Repeat the same process but reversed on the other side using the right string. When you get to the middle, do another double half hitch knot from either side to join the piece together forming a V.
