3 Peg Spool Knit Wrist Lanyard in MicroCord

This is probably the third or fourth 3 peg spool knit I've tried. Initially I was using craft twine and kept ending up with loose bights. I tried in MicroCord this time and asked the gracious StormDrane what his trick was to uniformity because this plagued my other attempts. He explained to me that he tightened the bights every three pegs. Where a I was doing tightening every peg which was causing different tension on different bights. His advice definitely solved my problem and I am thrilled with how this has turned out. I finished this lanyard with three True Lover's Knots(ABOK#2421) and attached it to the lobster snap with opposite direction hitches. Go to StormDrane's blog see see more of his great work. Hope you enjoy my work and thanks for looking as always :)

7 Strand Crown Knot USB Fob

In my last rope order I got some MicroCord(1.18mm) to play with. I decided to start experimenting with higher lead crown knots. The result even with seven strands was quite small but great looking in my opinion. Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking as always :)

3 Color ParaCord Cross (Bladder Cancer Awareness)

After seeing a my mothers keychain at the corner store a woman working there asked her if I could make a purple, gold and blue cross for her. I found this out last night and went to trying to make one. Started out like the ParaCord Cross from J.D. Of TIAT demonstrated on his YouTube channel and added a third cord. Then began creating two hexagonal sinnets as the left and right arm as he showed and followed his instruction afterward including the third color. Hope you enjoy thanks for looking as always.

My Second Watch Guard Lanyard

I had my other lanyard hanging on my wall and it was seen by my girlfriends sister who had to have one :) So I tied her this one in red as she wanted. The Chinese Butterfly knot came out much more as expected and as depicted in the ABOK(#2460). The Footrope knot worked back to create a loop is coming out cleaner the more I tie them, I believe I will start learning how to turn it to a 2 PLY Footrope knot. Hope you enjoy as always, thanks for looking:)

Watch Guard Lanyard

I received my Ashley Book of Knots(ABOK) the other day and have begun tying from it. Today due to having a bum ankle from rolling it in the snow I decided to try out the Watch Guard(ABOK#3753). The lanyard consists of two knots, The Chinese Butterfly(ABOK#2460) and the Foot Rope knot(ABOK#792). One of the leads from the Foot Rope gets double back through the knot creating a loop. Ashley recommends printing a diagram to pin to, I just traced the diagram visually as I went along on a flat surface. A five foot length of green paracord starting the Chinese Butterfly about 3" from one end of the length. After working out the slack you'll end up with enough to make the lanyard. I'll be making this again to get a more dressed appearance. Hope you enjoy. Thanks for looking.

3 PLY Turks Head Awl

I have been making these for awhile on different objects in different leads and bights. After finding some instructions from Stormdrane, I've pretty much been hooked. Not really sure if I'm even labeling this one right as I haven't seen it done anywhere and be labeled. I started out by making a Turks Head/Woggle (ABOK#1303-05)on my finger and adding a third pass. I worked some slack into it to fit over my awl and then removed the slack or dressed the knot to my liking. Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for looking as always.

Emperor Snake Knot Fob

I'm a big fan of J.D Lenzen and his knot work. Subsequently I follow him on YouTube and enjoy tying his new ideas. Presented is the original Emperor Fob and the challenge piece from the videos end. Hope you enjoy thanks for looking as always.
