Step 2: Preparation
First, cut off a length of cord. How much depends on how many beads you want on the top part. I used four , and I cut off 22 - 23 inches (55 - 60 centimeters). You can
experiment.
Pull out the core . That's the white strings on the inside. This lets you compress the cord, which will be important when you're putting the beads on.
Make a loop in the middle . First, even up the loose ends. Refer to the second picture for how to make a loop knot. Make a small loop if you're going to put this around a
shirt button; make a bigger one if you're going to loop it through your LCE/LBE.
Fuse the ends . Using a match or your lighter, wave the cord ends back and forth through the flame until they start turning black. Then quickly mash each end together (
not with each other ) so it's closed off.
