Thanks so much for showing how to adjust it "on" the arm. I appreciate it.

After watching half a dozen videos on how to do this knot, this is the only one I could follow & complete, I am also using the crimp bead hint to finish other projects , thank you so much Alexandra

Aww thank you, I'm glad we could be the one to help! Enjoy your bracelet!

most simple easiest instructions at last I found directions I can see steps clearly.

Thanks for the instructions just takes a bit of practice but you are easy to follow great tutorial!

Thank you! Been looking for tutorial that includes getting a measurement for both loose & snug fit and where the knots come out evenly spaced.

Thank you for the tutorial for double sliding knots. I use it on 3mm leather rope and it snuck tight and secure.

Thank you so much! Very detailed and easy to follow for a beginner like me! Great tutorial!

The BEST for an adjustable bracelet!💝

Thank you so much! I appreciated the close up and your explanations! You made it seem so simple!

Thank you so much! This is the best sliding knot I am so happy :)

I love barrel knots, also using crimp covers gives it a professional look, t y.

Very nice easy to follow tutorials! You cover the "basics" which are the foundation of bracelet making. Thank you.

Like the crimp cover idea. Thanks.

Really like the sparkle crimp bead and how it keeps the rest of the beads in place. Never thought to use crimp beads on leather. Great idea for a necklace too. I don't have the dexterity to manipulate the bracelet with 1 hand (arthritis), but could adjust the knot at the back of a necklace. TFS!

It's a tough one, our early attempts looked pretty janky too. You can try practicing the knot a few times on a spare piece of cord a few times and then when you've got your technique down you can tidy up the sentimental bracelet without worrying about putting a bunch of extra wear on that cord.

Super!

The crimp covers in this video will work on a 1.5mm cord, but you can potentially use smaller crimp covers around 2mm or 3mm. We have some more options here: www.beadaholique.com/beading-components/crimp-ends-covers-cord-ends/crimp-bead-covers

The knotmaking worked for me but I needed 7" of tail to make the loops. However, the finished product came out kind of big even cinched down to the smallest. Is there a way to gauge how snugly the bracelet will fit when it's finished?

@beadaholique

3 жыл бұрын

We tend to feel it out as we go, testing it out on the hand after we've got our first knot in place, as Alexandra does in the video around 2:25 and judging things from there. These knots can be a pain to get right but don't be afraid to undo the second one and do it again to get the length just right before you trim your tails.

Awesome video! Question, how long would the cord be for a larger sized wrist? Thank you.

@beadaholique

7 жыл бұрын

The bracelet in the video uses approximately 2.5 feet of cord. You would need an extra 4 to 5 inches of cord for every additional inch you want to add to the bracelet. Thanks for watching!

Is this bracelet as challenging to tighten up once it’s on as it looks in the video? How about getting it off?

Hi, great tutorial...One question: I purchased a lot of crystal healing beads like amethyst and turquoise etc in 4mm, 6mm and 12mm, and 2mm cord as well as 1mm hemp cord and the holes in all of the beads are too small for either cord. Is this normal? I also purchased a bead reamer but its not serrated like a file its just smooth so I dont logically understand how that could ream the hole larger... Can you tell me what I did wrong? Thank you

@beadaholique

2 жыл бұрын

1mm cord is still fairly thick, gemstone beads will often have holes under 1mm, Reaming the bead holes isn't a bad idea, but it doesn't sound like you got a good reamer if it's completely smooth to the touch. A good reamer will usually have a rough coating of industrial diamonds, sort of a sandpaper-like texture. Still though, even with a high quality reamer it sounds like a lot of work to re-size those beads, you might wanna consider a narrower cord. We have a 0.55mm hemp cord, might be a thin enough fit for those beads: beadaholique.com/products/beadsmith-natural-hemp-twine-bead-cord-0-55mm-394-feet-120-meters

How do you do this when you have knots between the beads

@beadaholique

3 жыл бұрын

With this style of bracelet the technique is pretty much. If you want to make a piece like this but with the 7 focal beads spaced out by knots you would start by cutting yourself a length of cord, finding the center of it by folding it in half, then sliding on the bead you want to have at the very center, knotting it in place on either side with overhand knots or whatever kind of decorative knot you'd like, and then continuing to add beads and additional knots to each side.

could you use only one slide knot?

I really dislike this bracelet as the knot is not secure even if tight, which then makes it hard to slide.

This needs to be done from a different angle so WE CAN SEE WHAT YOU’RE DOING WITHOUT YOUR HANDS IN THE WAY. Not everyone here is an experienced beader.

I found this absolutely impossible to follow

Your hands are so huge I can't see how you make the slide knots:(
