Knot on a bracelet made of elastic thread. Self-tightening knots for clothesline, for bracelet, for fishing line, for reel

There are many ways to assemble a bracelet.

Today we will talk about the simplest things. This is an elastic bracelet that does not require a clasp.

To make such a bracelet, you will need a minimum of materials and 10 minutes of time.

We will need:

— Elastic silicone thread. The thickness of elastic threads ranges from 0.4 to 2 mm. The most common are 0.5 and 0.8 mm. There are also options for color. In our case, any will do (for transparent beads, you may have to take into account the color). If you have large, heavy beads and the thread is thin, fold it in half.

- Various beads (not very large and not heavy), beads, perhaps pendants - it’s up to your taste

- scissors

- a thin needle and a piece of regular thread about 20 cm long (will make the work easier)

First, determine the size of your wrist. This is especially true if you want the bracelet to fit tightly on your hand.

If the holes in the beads are wide enough, you can string them on a thread. It’s more convenient (and faster) for me to use a needle and auxiliary thread, as shown in the photo below.

Place beads and beads on an elastic thread as you like. The length of the dialed section should be slightly larger than your wrist. Please note that a bracelet that is too narrow will squeeze your hand, while a bracelet that is too wide will dangle.

When selecting beads, it is necessary to take into account the pattern repeat and the size of the largest beads.

In the photo, the yellow arrow indicates the wrist size, the blue arrows indicate possible options end of the set. I don’t recommend making the bracelet smaller than your wrist - it will pinch, and after a few hours of wear there will be marks on the skin. It is always better to provide a small margin for a loose fit. Moreover, for small beads half a centimeter is enough, for large beads you may need even up to 2 centimeters - keep in mind that the final internal diameter of your bracelet directly depends on the size of the beads.

After the beads are collected, pinch the thread at the base of the beads and cut, do not stretch the thread. You now have loose ponytails of about one and a half centimeters.

Now pull the thread and pull out the tails another centimeter and a half to two. This will be enough to make it convenient to tie a knot; the thread in the bracelet will be taut, but not too much. Tie a knot.

First node:

Since the thread must be taut when tying a knot, hold it tightly with your left hand, and with your right hand, circle it with a free tail as shown by the arrow (If you use the knot I recommend, then you will need to circle it twice, pressing the turns with the fingers of your left hand).

Second node.

To make it more convenient, press the first knot with your middle finger.

Now about How to tie an elastic thread?

For the first knot, wrap the thread not once, but twice - as shown in the photo:

Tie the second knot as usual. Please note that it is knitted in a mirror (“in the other direction”) relative to the first one (according to the principle of a straight knot).

The knot is in a tightened state. This -

It is important to know! Here's an example wrong tied surgical knot: the second knot is tied “in the same way” as the first:

It is important to know! When tightened, such a knot unfolds.

It is important to know! This photo shows a possible build error- before tying the knot, the thread was not tightened enough, and the beads are now dangling. To eliminate the defect, pull the thread, cut the thread close to the knot, and tie the knot again, trying to leave short tails.

After the knot is tightened, trim the tails at a distance of about one and a half millimeters from the knot. Additionally, the knot can be secured with glue, but I don’t do this.

The bracelet is ready!

Now you can make half a dozen more - and wear them both together and separately.

Small tricks for working with elastic silicone thread

What to do if the thread is thin?

If your thread is thin or you don't trust it, fold it in half.

But if your beads have small holes, and a knot tied on a double thread turns out to be too thick for them, you can do something more cunning: thread one of the tails of the thread into the loop on the opposite side (as shown in the photo):

Now tie the ends of the thread together, preferably moving the knot slightly away from the loop (method 2).

In the next photo you can't see the loop that one of the tails went through, but you can clearly see that the knot will be tied to the side of the loop. Both the knot and the bend of the thread through the loop form thickenings on the thread, and it is better if they are spaced apart from each other by at least half a centimeter.

Disadvantages of this method: If your bracelet uses beads with sharp edges (for example, glass beads or cut beads), the base thread may fray over time. If your bracelet is strung on a double thread as described above (method 2), then it is enough to fray one thread for the bracelet to fall apart. While a bracelet assembled using method 1 will last longer. This does not mean that method 2 is worse or better, just keep in mind that in this case the presence of beads with sharp edges may be the weakest link in the entire assembly.

By the way, a tightly stretched thread rubs against the sharp edge of the glass bead. Therefore, do not skimp on a couple of centimeters of thread and do not tighten it too much. The tension should be such that the beads just stick together, tightly to each other. Such a bracelet will be easier to put on, and a loose thread will not stretch so quickly. And if the bracelet becomes your favorite, and you wear it a lot and for a long time, so much so that the thread stretches, you will have the opportunity to tie the knot again, a little tighter.

The easiest way to assemble a bracelet is with an elastic band. Use strong, reliable thread. If the thread is thin and stretches too much, or you are worried that it will fray, then it is better to take it in several folds. To assemble with an elastic band, it is better not to use heavy beads (large glass or stone) or beads with sharp holes. For such bracelets more suitable jewelry cable.

You need an elastic band to work, I use it thick silicone thread 1.2 mm thick, code on the website 351-011 . It is soft, so you will need another needle. If your thread is thinner, then use it in several folds. We select any suitable beads and decorative elements. I have metal cast caps and crystal translucent beads. Beads from polymer clay made using the mokume-gane technique:

I string beads onto a thread. To make it easier to thread the needle into the eye, I melt the edge of the thread a little; when melted, no solid drop remains on this thread, but the fibers become more ordered:

I tie the ends of the thread in a knot, the bracelet is ready. Read more about nodes below:

For securing synthetic threads, elastic, spandex and fishing linebetter use the following nodes:

Surgical knot:

Look like him Academic node:

Also reliable Flemish knot:

Another knot that is very difficult to untie isWater node, suitable for elastic:

Also good for fishing line and syntheticsFurrier's knot:

Excellent Liana Knot:

These knots are all well suited for jewelry, but have different sizes, volumes and patterns. If this is not important for the thin thread that I use, then for a round thick elastic band or waxed cord it can be important, so before making the product, it is better to practice on a piece of thread.

Now a few words about the nodes thatshould not be used:

Oak knotdon't come neart for securing synthetic threads and fishing line. When tensioned, it slides easily and comes undone:

Also not suitableBabi knot, although it is so common in everyday life. He will not be able to hold the elastic at all:

Just as insidiousMother-in-law's knot, also not for our purposes:

Weaving knotsgood for threads, but slip on elastic:

Drawings and descriptions of node properties are taken from the book L.N. Skryagina "Sea Knots" , tested by me practically on an elastic band.

Here are some more photos of bracelets as an example. Using different fittings and beads, we can change the style of the bracelet.

This bracelet uses crystal beads different sizes, shaped separator bead, bead caps, pendant holder, connecting ring and pendant with shine effect:

In this work, polymer beads Natasha beads, crystal beads, bead caps and spacer beads with spirals:

In these simple bracelets minimum details. Striped resin beads and wooden beads. With purple beads I used 6 mm uncut glass beads.

Bracelet with a rose pendant, crystal beads, polymer beads decorated with caps for jewelry. The rosette is attached to the bail using a connecting ring.

There are many ways to assemble a bracelet.

Today we will talk about the simplest things. This is an elastic bracelet that does not require a clasp.

To make such a bracelet, you will need a minimum of materials and 10 minutes of time.

We will need:

- Various beads (not very large and not heavy), beads, perhaps pendants - it’s up to your taste

- scissors

- a thin needle and a piece of regular thread about 20 cm long (will make the work easier)

First, determine the size of your wrist. This is especially true if you want the bracelet to fit tightly on your hand. Typically wrist sizes are different people lie in the range of 15-19 cm. In addition, keep in mind that the left and right wrists are different in size; for right-handed people, as a rule, right hand a little thicker. Therefore, it may well turn out that a bracelet made for the left hand and fits well on it will put pressure on the right. Not much, but after a few hours of wear it can cause discomfort. Of course, if you want to make a bracelet that dangles freely on your hand, these comments will not be relevant.

If the holes in the beads are wide enough, you can string them directly onto the thread. It’s more convenient (and faster) for me to use a needle and auxiliary thread, as shown in the photo below.

When selecting beads, it is necessary to take into account the pattern repeat and the size of the largest beads.

In the photo, the yellow arrow indicates the wrist size, and the blue arrows indicate possible options for completing the set. I don’t recommend making the bracelet smaller than your wrist - it will pinch, and after a few hours of wear there will be marks on the skin. It is always better to provide a small margin for a loose fit. Moreover, for small beads half a centimeter is enough, for large beads you may need even up to 2 centimeters - keep in mind that the final internal diameter of your bracelet directly depends on the size of the beads.

Once the beads are cast on, pinch the thread at the base of the beads and cut (do not stretch the thread!). You now have loose ponytails of about one and a half centimeters.

First half knot:

Second half knot. To make it more convenient, press the first half-knot with your middle finger.

Now about How to tie an elastic thread?

The most important - Don’t tie a “regular” woman’s knot - it won’t hold!

You can tie a straight knot.

But there is a better option.

For the first half-knot, wrap the thread not once, but twice - as shown in the photo:

Knit the second half knot as usual. Please note that it is knitted in a mirror (“in the other direction”) relative to the first one (according to the principle of a straight knot).

The knot is in a tightened state. This - . This is the knot that surgeons use to connect threads together during operations.

And here is an example of an incorrectly tied surgical knot: the second half-knot is tied “in the same way” as the first:

When tightened, such a knot unfolds:

This is what a tied knot on an elastic thread looks like:

And this photo shows possible error assembly - before tying the knot, the thread was not tightened enough, and the beads are now dangling. To eliminate the defect, pull the thread, cut the thread close to the knot, and tie the knot again, trying to leave short tails.

After the knot is tightened, trim the tails at a distance of about one and a half millimeters from the knot. Additionally, the knot can be secured with glue, but I don’t do this.

The bracelet is ready!

Now you can make half a dozen more - and wear them both together and separately.

Small tricks for working with elastic silicone thread

What to do if the thread is thin?

If your thread is thin or you don't trust it, fold it in half.

Now tie the ends of the thread together, preferably moving the knot slightly away from the loop (method 2).

By the way, a tightly stretched thread rubs against the sharp edge of the glass bead faster than a loosely stretched thread. Therefore, do not skimp on a couple of centimeters of thread and do not tighten it too much. The tension should be such that the beads just stick together, tightly to each other. Such a bracelet will be easier to put on, and a loose thread will not stretch so quickly. And if the bracelet becomes your favorite, and you wear it a lot and for a long time, so much so that the thread stretches, you will have the opportunity to tie the knot again, a little tighter.

There are trimmed tails sticking out between the beads, what should I do?

Any knot should be hidden inside the nearest bead. But if the knot passes through the bead freely, sooner or later it will still come out, and the tails will begin to peek out treacherously. This is especially unpleasant when the thread is a different color from the beads. In this case, I recommend fixing the knot inside the bead with glue: drop any transparent glue onto the knot and hide it in the bead. Now, when worn, the bead will reliably hide the junction of the thread.

Where else can you use silicone thread?

Bracelets are not the only use for silicone thread. With its help you can make, for example, these cute rings:

Jewelry assembled with silicone thread, in my opinion, is perfect for children's jewelry: it is quickly made and remade, easy to put on and take off, assembly is not difficult and is accessible to the child. Perfect option for any little fashionista!

But I would not consider such an assembly as a purely “children’s” or “summer” option. For example, Spanish women love to wear bracelets, ranging from baubles made from a pair of laces to massive gold chains. And these bracelets, assembled with an elastic thread, are worn by everyone - from schoolgirls to respectable seniors. Often these are bracelets made of large beads, with pendants and metal inserts. Moreover, as a rule, they wear several at a time and go with any outfit - from sporty-loose jeans to formal dresses.

Self-tightening knot - what is it

Most types of knots and methods of tying them came into use modern world from the navy, although in this area it is used infrequently due to its unreliability. The fact is that a self-tightening knot holds tightly only under constant load; at the moment of weakening, it is quite capable of coming undone. Despite this, there are areas for its application.

This is the simplest original knot and in general represents one of the simplest types of noose. This unit reliably withstands heavy weight and traction proportional to the strength of the cable or other material from which it is made. But you need to be careful when using it, making sure that the load on the node does not weaken.

For better reliability, there are several variations of this unit.

Tying a knot

The methods of tying this knot are among the simplest and fastest. All you need to create it is a rope with a running end and a support. Fishermen use a spool for this purpose.">

The end of the rope is wrapped around the support, thus forming an open loop. At the end of the rope or fishing line you need to form a loop. First make a winding around it behind the running end and wind it closed loop. The running end of the loop needs to be made several turns and brought out through the main loop. Pull it, the knot will tighten and, when loaded, show all its power.

To improve the strength of the knot itself when knitting, a self-tightening knot with half bayonets is used. It is performed no more difficult than the standard one. After performing the basic knitting technique, two half-bayonets are formed on the weight side. Maximum effect this type is achieved when certain conditions are met:

if it is formed off-center;
if the running end should be directed towards the intended load.

Where is it used?

He will find his place in all spheres of life. It is often used in mountaineering and in warehouses (they are used for hanging heavy objects). Fishermen use it when tying gear for fishing from the shore.

Shock-absorbing units are popular. They are formed on an additional rope, which is used to connect a spare fastening in case of destruction of the main one. There are also self-tightening units for transporting goods or for various rescue operations. These include the braking unit, “belts” and mariner. «>

There are two types of fastenings - simple and complex, for different life situations. In the navy, the original self-tightening knot is rarely used, with preference given to its variations.

Fastening

The mount is often popular with fishermen. Although experienced fishermen suggested tying a self-tightening knot for fishing line without additional parts, their use makes life much easier. The fastening helps to fix the loops during knitting, prevents the knot from unraveling abruptly, and simplifies the knitting process. On the shelves of fish stores you can now see reels with a stopper for attaching braid. Many anglers reel in the line held by the spool without unnecessary fasteners, but only those who have gained experience over many years.

Kinds

There are 18 types of self-tightening knots in total, but using one rope there are only 4 types:

● Classic Prusik.

● Cross.

● With an “arb” carbine.

● Bachmann knot (with carabiner).

The number of turns is unstable; if necessary, it can be increased.

“>It is necessary to highlight one of the strongest knots - the constrictor knot. It gets its name from the zoological name for the boa constrictor, Boa constrictor, which defeats its prey by strangulation. This self-tightening rope knot is reliable and is made using rounded objects instead of support. As soon as the support disappears, it dissolves itself.

Use of the knot by anglers

A self-tightening knot for the top of the head is actively used by fishermen. It is a structure made from a block of tops with a weight. Tying such a tackle is quite simple. ">

To do this you will need a fishing line, a double leader and a sinker. A special sinker must be purchased at the store, otherwise the entire device may fail. Most often it looks like a horseshoe with a hole in the center of the product. The top bar is tightened using a self-tightening knot and hung with hooks.

To decorate the tackle, take a fishing line 4 mm in diameter and up to 50 cm in length. The line is pushed through the hole into the sinker to the middle, after which it is brought up. Insulation is put on it and a loop is made. After this, a self-tightening knot is formed, onto which the crown is attached. The insulation serves as a fastener for a long leash on the side of the free end of the fishing line, on which a swivel is attached to protect the fishing line from twisting in the current. Having secured the cake block with hooks, you can consider the task completed. The workpiece is attached with a carabiner to the main fishing line. The bait is ready to be cast. Getting into the water, it gradually gets wet, and the crumbling cake from the top spreads in the reservoir, attracting the desired fish.

Nautical

Initially, a self-tightening rope knot was created by sailors to secure sails and various items on deck. Reliable nodes are the key to success, because the seas and oceans are so turbulent. During the heyday of navigation, there were more than 500 types of knots. Tying sea knots is a whole science. But with the introduction steam engine the need for sails disappeared, knots began to be used less. And the change in the composition of the materials of cables and ropes caused some knots to lose their effectiveness. ">

A self-tightening knot was used in maritime affairs for fastening to cylindrical objects. It is simply called a noose, since the hanged noose was tied according to the same principle. In the event of no load or variable traction, the running end slides out, dissolving the entire assembly. This was the reason for refusing to use it. Therefore, the navy began to use a constrictor and self-tightening knot with half bayonets. The peculiarity of its knitting is that the knot itself is placed offset, so that the running end is directed towards the load. Due to this, it will not slip out so quickly.

Advantages

The self-tightening knot has gained recognition primarily due to its ease of knitting and high efficiency. Despite its unreliability, it is often used, but only in those cases when they are sure of the presence of constant weighting. Not required when forming a node Additional materials or devices. The main task, which it copes with brilliantly, is to withstand a load proportional to the density of the cable (rope, fishing line, cable) from which the knot is knitted.

If there is constant weight, the knot is not able to untie on its own, only manually, which will also not cause trouble. It is as easy to untie as it is to tie. This advantage was appreciated by fishermen and climbers, for whom every second is precious. This property makes this node a leader.

Even a child can learn how to knit a noose, and correct use contributes to the maximum realization of the expected result - reliable retention of heavy weight.

To complete the collection, I will add a link to another master class. How to stretch an elastic band inside a long hollow tube. Follow the link for description. Briefly, a loop of jewelry cable or wire is inserted inside the bracelet, a soft elastic band is hooked into it, and when the cable is pulled out, the rubber band is also removed from the other side:

Good luck and creative mood! I hope that you will get the most beautiful and reliable bracelets!

Application

Self-tightening knots are used not only by climbers and sailors. Some sources claim that there are about twenty such schemes. Knowing them all is not necessary even for a professional. But some universal combinations can be useful to the common man.

When relaxing outdoors, the “constrictor” knot will securely secure the hammock, and the “gazebo” will help to equip a canopy from the rain. For housewives, there is a “burlak sea loop” if there is a need to tighten a clothesline from sagging or organize drying for the collected medicinal herbs. When walking your dog, sometimes it becomes necessary to leave your pet securely tied to a support for a while. A simple cow knot will do the trick. It knits easily and quickly allows you to release the leash.

Self-tightening fishing line knots are a must have in any fisherman's arsenal. They are also useful for securely fastening the boat. For those going on a mountain hike, knowledge of the components for belay equipment is simply necessary.

Peculiarities

The operating principle of such schemes is inherent in the definition itself. When one or both ends of the rope are pulled, the knot is tightened. Moreover, the stronger the force, the stronger the connection will be. But it should be remembered that some self-tightening knots “work” reliably only with constant tension. If the force is expected to vary or be jerky, the connection may become loose.

Self-tightening knots are tied around any reliable support. They hold especially well on a non-slip cylindrical base: tree trunk, stump, branch, power pole and the like. The most simple circuit knitting involves only three movements. Form a half ring by twisting the free end around the base.

Continuing the movement, he is brought under the main rope and passed into the now formed loop. Essentially, this is the same knot as when tying shoelaces. But in the loop formed during its formation there is support. Now, when pulling the main rope, the free end will be pressed against a hard surface, which will prevent the structure from untying.

Varieties

To increase the reliability of the circuit described above, you can perform a few more simple manipulations. After tightening the knot, the free end is re-thrown around the support, brought behind the main rope and passed into the newly formed loop. This type of knot is called “with a half bayonet”. You can make one, two or more reinsurances if the length of the rope allows. Such self-tightening units will be more perfect; they will remain on the support even with a variable load.

In order not to be at all afraid of accidentally untying them, you can use a “constrictor”. This is translated from Latin as “boa constrictor”. And these reptiles, as is known, form very strong rings when holding a victim. The constrictor often cannot be untied at all and the rope has to be cut. However, if you do not use excessive force, the knot will do a good job of tightening the neck of the bag and securing the clothesline. In case of emergency, it is best suited to clamp a damaged artery or vein in the event of bleeding.

Scheme option

More complex knots are based on basic combinations. So, based on the above diagram, you can make several more connection options, including self-tightening knots for fishing line. On the one hand, they become a little more difficult to perform, but on the other hand, they make the basic combination universal. Depending on the situation, you can easily move from it to other types of fastenings.

For example, the simple self-tightening knot described above can be made quickly untied. To do this, before tightening the loop, the free end of the rope is passed in the opposite direction (not completely) to form another loop. If necessary, you can pull the free “tail” that is formed in order to effortlessly untie the fastener. A scheme in this design is called a “boat assembly”. It simultaneously holds the boat well on the pier and allows you to quickly cast off from the shore just by pulling the edge of the rope.

Complication

Using a simple self-tightening knot as a basis, you can easily move on to the “noose” pattern. To do this, before tightening, the free end is twisted three times around the rope that forms a loop. When tightened evenly, the connection is securely fixed due to repeated pressing force against the support. Untying such a knot without loosening the main rope is problematic.

A self-tightening knot with a loop can be useful in everyday life for shortening a sagging clothesline. With its help, you can temporarily “hide” (make inactive) a section of the cord with damaged fibers, which theoretically can break under load. The advantage of the “burlatsk sea loop” knot is its ability to be tied on any part of a fixed rope that does not have free ends.

There may be several options. The simplest one is if there is already a loop of rope or fishing line at one end of the bracelet. They do this because with one hand without outside help work is difficult. In this case, a massive decorative knot is knitted at the other end.

It should be of such a size that it can fit right through the hole in the loop. The knot is tied with the expectation that when “fastening” it, the strap will need to be slightly tightened. After threading it through the eye, the force will weaken, but the loop will not be able to come off on its own.

To prevent a self-tightening knot for a bracelet from accidentally coming undone, the easiest way is to use the scheme described above. The free end is threaded through the eyelet, turned in the opposite direction, placed under the main ribbon and passed into the resulting loop. You can also use the variants of the circuits shown in the photographs above for these purposes.

Fishing: how to make a self-tightening knot

Oddly enough, to secure the end of the fishing line (cord) to the reel, in principle, you can use the same simple scheme, especially if you additionally reinforce it with two or more “half-pins”, and in addition, put a layer of adhesive tape on top. However, fishermen usually use a different scheme for this - with a tightening loop.

For the convenience of such fastening, the spool is removed from the reel. At the end of the line any in a convenient way a loop is knitted. It is best to do this with a figure eight, but this is not important. After this, at some distance (15-20 cm) from the knot formed, the main line is grabbed, folded in half and threaded through the eye.

The new loop thus formed is pulled to a sufficient distance so that the diameter of the circle allows it to be put on the spool. Self-tightening knots on the reel with a sealing loop, on the one hand, will keep the fishing line from slipping, and on the other, allow it to be removed and changed if necessary, without cutting the connection. If the loop still slips, it means that it was placed on the wrong side when putting it on the spool, and it should be turned 180 degrees.

Slipknot - irreplaceable thing for creating simple jewelry. Having learned how to tie such a knot, you can turn any rope or cord that you find in the house into a bracelet or beads. And no special fittings! Even just the rope itself will be decorative. But jewelry with single pendants turns out especially great: beads, charms, large pendants. Moreover, you can also create these pendants with your own hands. For example, make a bead from felt and beads - using this example we will show how to make a decoration from a cord with two sliding knots. Learn how to tie a slip knot and create simple decorations Even preschool children can do it with their own hands. After all, such a knot is no more complicated than a “bow” on a lace. And one more wonderful property of this fastening is that you can adjust the size of the bracelet or necklace according to your desire. And this size will be easy to change.

How to make a slip knot for jewelry.

In jewelry, the color of the cord is, of course, the same color, but for convenience we will show how to tie a slip knot using different cords.
The red cord slides easily in the knot.
We lay the red cord flat, make a loop from the yellow cord and place it next to the red cord.
We begin to twist the tip of the yellow cord around the loop and the red cord, rising up to the loop. Try to place the coils tightly next to each other.

Make three turns (you can make any number of turns, starting with one).
Insert the end of the yellow cord into the loop.
Pull the yellow cord from the bottom of the knot.

The loop will tighten and you will have a nice slip knot.

So first, use an elastic thread to keep the bracelet in place. This way it won’t tear when worn and won’t fall off your hand. Secondly, when you have finally assembled it, cut the thread. You should have about a centimeter and a half free at the ends. Pull the thread and pull the ends out a couple of centimeters. First, make a half-knot: take one end of the thread and hold it with your hand, and at this time you will need to circle the second one near the first. Happened? Now make a second half knot like this.

How to finally secure the thread? Many needlewomen do this: in the first half-knot they wrap the thread twice. In the second half-knot, the thread is wrapped only once. In other words, you perform mirror actions relative to the very first node. This is how a surgical knot is formed. Why surgical? Yes, because surgeons connect the threads this way during surgery.

Now you have tightened the knot, cut the ends of the thread at a distance of about one and a half millimeters, now insert them into the nearest beads. Some use glue to secure it for extra security. Well, if you can avoid getting glue on your bracelet, give it a try. Every needlewoman has her own secrets.

Try this node option. Thread one end of the thread into the loop on the other side. Now move the knot away from the loop and tie the ends of the thread together. True, it's not too much good option, since the sharp edge of the beads can break even a thread folded in half.

Slipknot

To tie such a knot, you will need a little patience and a little perseverance. First, prepare a cotton cord that is not too thick, no more than 90 cm long. Put beads on it in the right order and weave a bracelet. Now - attention, let's tie a knot! Take the ends of the cord with your hand, so that there is a margin of 14 centimeters on each side, and direct them towards each other.

Then bend its right tip so that the tip is outside and placed on the edge (see picture). The resulting loop must be fixed. Make sure it is no more than 10 centimeters. Continue working with the right tip, and the knot will continue to slide along the left one.

Point the left tip from left to right, circle the loop and part of the lace several times, then carefully lay the resulting “rows” in the direction opposite to you. Make three more turns like this, holding the knot with your finger and adjusting the tension of the cord. Now pass the left and right ends through the resulting loop so that they can be pulled into a knot. Just don’t pull it too tightly, because the coils should move freely. So we made the first knot.

We proceed to the next one, doing exactly the same steps as the first time. The resulting node will be passive. Next, make a loop at the second end of the lace, to do this, wrap the free tip around it five times and tighten the knot. The result is a loop into which you need to thread the remaining end of the cord. What is left can be trimmed. For special effect the ends can be glued using universal glue.

Sometimes a bracelet is woven by bending the thread in half. How to tighten the knot in this case?

The ends of our thread should be two loops. These loops must be put on the right and left hands and a knot must be tied without removing the loops from the hands as follows:

With your right hand, cross the loop in the middle of the thread and hold it. At this time, you need to put on a loop with your left hand, tying a knot in such a way that our bracelet, put on your left hand, fits inside the loop. Now we pass a loop under the bracelet and pull it out from under the bracelet. Left hand release from the loop, release the thread and pull it. It turns out to be a knot!

Another way: you need to make a loop on a thread or rope, then put it on your hand, closer to the elbow of the loop that is on your hand. You thread the loop into the hole of another loop tied on your arm and throw the resulting knot onto the thread.

These are the methods of tying knots on a bracelet that exist today. Now you know them and can use them. Good luck!

In this master class I want to show how to make a bracelet with elastic (spandex, elastic thread). Such bracelets have long been very popular. And thanks to the variety of beads used, you can make a lot of jewelry, both beads and bracelets. They can be worn one at a time or several at once. By varying the quantity and color, you can look different every day.

I'll show you how to make a Swarovski pearl bracelet with an elastic band.

For the bracelet I needed Swarovski pearls with a diameter of 10 mm.
You also need an elastic thread. Typically, an elastic thread is not round and consists of many thin threads.
But I have this rubber band. This elastic band is thin, similar to fishing line, only stretches a little, and has a circular cross-section with a diameter of 0.60 mm. The elastic band is very durable. If you pull it, it doesn't break. Perhaps someone has the same one. Then my master class will help you.
The problem was that such an elastic band could not withstand a single knot. She simply slid and the knot came undone. But I found a solution.

We cut the elastic band much longer than the future bracelet. The free ends of the elastic should be of such length that you can tie them comfortably. Look at the photo below. We collect pearls onto an elastic band.

Now the most important thing. An academic knot was suitable for my elastic band. There are quite a few types of knots, but this particular one was suitable for this elastic band.

Look at the photo below. Wrap (tie) 2 times. It should look like this.

Then tighten it as tight as possible.

And again we wrap it 2 times (we tie it 2 times), trying not to unravel the previous knots.

And tighten it tight.
The result is a knot like this. Next, we pull the elastic thread alternately from the side of the beads and from the side of the free ends to tie as tightly as possible.

We cut off the edges as close to the knot as possible. We hide the knot under the fittings, for example, under a clamp bead.

This is what happened.

I decided to make earrings with pearls as well.
I'll show you how I made the earrings.

We fix the pearls on pins. We make rings and attach them to the earrings.

Finished earrings.

I also made a transforming decoration. Can be worn like regular beads. And if you wrap it around your wrist 3 times, you get a multi-row bracelet.

The decorations are ready!

IN last years Many people are interested in this type of hobby, such as bead weaving. And most often they are engaged in weaving bracelets.

Often many people manage to create real works of art. Of course, things created with one’s own hand are distinguished not only by their uniqueness, but also by their originality. But beadwork is not as simple a craft as many people think. Many people are unable to perform, for example, such an element as tying a knot on a bracelet. After all, it is a strong, reliable unit that guarantees the preservation of your work.

In this article you can familiarize yourself with and learn how to tie 3 types of knots on bracelets.

How to tie a surgical knot?

So, the first type is a surgical knot. For this type of knot, it is better to use an elastic thread.

To tie a surgical knot, cut the threads so that the ends are 1.5 centimeters long.

Then pull the thread, so the ends become another 2 centimeters longer. Initially, we perform a half-knot: hold one end of the thread with one hand, and wrap the second edge around the first.

Use this trick with the first thread. Now all that remains is to finally secure the thread. To do this, when creating the first half-knot, wrap the thread twice. But the second half-knot is wrapped only once. Now the surgical knot is ready.

How to tie a simple knot on a bracelet?

Now let's learn how to tie a knot on a regular bracelet. Everything is simple here, thread the tail into the loop with reverse side and pin the ends together. Similar view The knot is considered not very strong, since the sharp edge of the beads can break even a doubled thread.

How to tie a slip knot on a bracelet?

Another type of knot is the slip knot. To perform this type of knot you will have to be patient. For this knot you will need a thin, cotton cord 90 cm long. Using this cord, weave a bracelet. Once the bracelet is ready, leave a free cord 14 centimeters long and position the ends of each cord towards each other. Then bend the tip located to your right and place it along the edge.

Fasten the resulting loop. Pass the left edge from left to right and wrap it around the cord and loop once or twice. Then place this turn in the direction opposite to you. Repeat these steps for 3 more turns, while checking the thread tension. Pass both ends through the resulting buttonhole and fasten them. The first half is over.
