Jewelry Design- Basic Hemp Knotting

Hemp & Jute  Bracelets

Hemp and Bead Necklace
Basic Hemp Knotting is the first of the Hemp Knotting series at Michaels. We learn a basic overhand knot, square knot, and how to add beads to a design. Then we turn our new skills into a cute bracelet. Once you know how to do the basic knots in hemp you can switch materials: for a chunkier look you can use jute cord with large beads, for a more refined look you can use silk cord and semi precious beads. Either way, hemp knotting is relaxing and easy to do. If you are interested in a class check out the Jewelry class page on this blog or contact me for class dates and times.
