Rattle Snake Knots & Pupa Pull Ties

Been playing around with different ideas for knife lanyards. Decided to go through and learn some unique knots from J.D. Lenzens Tyingitalltogether channel. These were two of my favorites that I never got around to learning. So many knots out there it's hard to pick a line and follow ot for me. These are two I'd definitely reccomend learning because there fun & simple ties that produce a great finished product. Thanks for looking as always and I hope you enjoy the work you find here. Go tie something!

Triple Wide Zipper Sinnet and a knife lanyard

A newer tie shown on the Tyingitalltogether YouTube channel is the Triple Wide Zipper Sinnet. I absolutely loved the look and set out to make one. The first time trying it things turned out a bit sloppy. I was going to finish it anyway but the knot knut in me wouldn't allow it. I untied it and had another look at the video. I realized I had the two different length cords in the wrong place. I corrected that and tried again going a bit slower making sure the cords laid exactly how I wanted. I think the second time through came out wonderul:) The knife lanyard was made from the gutted scraps of the bracelet. I used the Round Crown Sinnet technique started with a loop and finished with a four strand crown. Hope you enjoy my work:) Thanks for looking as always. Go tie something:)

Backbone Bar Bracelet

Tyingitalltogether on YouTube posted a fob version of this some time ago. I had always wanted to convert it to a bracelet and stumbled back upon the video and went to making it happen. I used a common configuration to make the clasp and repeated the tying technique shown in the video. Hope you enjoy my work. Thanks for looking as always. Go tie something:)

Star Knots

I've been practicing them lately. Realizing I've been neglecting my feed here I decided to post all the ones I've made in one post. I find them to be very fun to tie as I just love knots that work together to make bigger knots hahaha. There's just an aesthetic to these I can't get over I adore them. Plenty of resources on the subject if your intersted in trying it out yourself. YouTube tends to be the best place to start when wanting to learn a new knot I find. Being able to pause and go back makes things very convenient. I hope you enjoy them and they inspire you to tie something! Have a great day thanks for looking and go tie something!

Two Tone Spool Knit Lanyard

A microcord lanyard I put together for my aunt who is trying to quit smoking. I found ecig lanyard rings online and started to making it when they arrived. This is a 3 peg knit in black and tan. I linked the two ends together with a four strand braid finished by a crown knot. I then made a two strand triple pass slip knot. The loop was used to Larks head the lanyard to the ring. Hope you enjoy and as always GO TIE SOMETHING! :)

Tripled 16L3B Turks

A couple more I've done up recently. Really getting the tie down now I feel. Less and less straightening to do after the fact which saves a lot of hassling around. Hope you enjoy the knots and have a good day! Go tie something!
