Knotted Necklace with Video Tutorial

Knotted necklace are fun to make with or for friends. Once you get into a rhythm, you can whip one out in no time. Plus, we have a quick video tutorial on how to use the Easy Knotter Tool to help make knots between beads.

Make sure to check out our previous post on the Easy Knotter and How to Use Silk Cord for information on the tool and Griffin Silk Cord.

Knotted necklaces are super easy to make.  You will need Griffin Silk Cord and an assortment of your favorite beads like gemstones, Chinese crystals, metal beads, seed beads, etc. We love using Griffin Silk Cord because you get about 6 1/2 feet of twisted silk cord with a twisted needle. This will give you a 32″ necklace, give or take. In the examples below, we use size No.8 Griffin Cord.
