Here, we explain to you five different knots that are used in bracelet making. You can also use different colored hemp cords to learn how to make a hemp bracelet with two colors.

• Take the hemp cord arranged with the lead string and inner string. Take the lead string on the left, and cross it over behind the inner string.

• Now, take the lead string on the right and cross it over the lead string on the left, and then under the inner string and slip it through the loop created in the last step.
• Pull at the hemp cords, and make a knot tightly to create half knot.

• With a piece of hemp cord, create a loop with one end circling over the other end.
• Next, take one end of the hemp string and slip it through the loop from under the loop, and then slip it through the loop again from above. This will create a pretzel-like shape.
• The overhand knot is created once you pull at the knot tightly.

• Fold the hemp cord into half, and now take this fold and use a dowel to pull it down. This is done so that the loop is visible to you below the doweling.
• Now take both the ends of the hemp cord, and pass it through the loop that has been made.
• Pull it tightly to create the Larkshead knot.

• You need 2 hemp strings of equal length. Hold them at the center. Take 2 more cords of equal length, and hold them at the end.
• Take the cord on the right side and cross it under the cords which you are holding at the center, and then pull it above the left cord.
• Repeat this with the cord on the left side.
• The knot thus created is known as the square knot.

• The last knot that we will learn is the switch knot. For this, you need to properly master the concepts of lead strings and inner strings.
• You need to ensure that inner strings are separated and not tangled so that the lead strings can slip in well.

• Take a lead string and cross it over the inner string. Do this with both lead strings. This will cause the lead strings and the inner strings to exchange roles.
• Secure this with a square knot, which has been explained here, and repeat the process. This is known as the switch knot.
