yarn/rope bracelet



Made a little bracelet inspired by a rope bracelet I saw on Pinterest.  I couldn't get the link to the instructions to work but it is really very simple.  It is just 2 pieces of rope (or yarn) looped to form a knot with the ends secured with a looped crimp end cord fastener (like this) and a toggle clasp attached. Instead of rope I used some worsted weight acrylic yarn that I braided.  To get the ends to fit in the crimp I wrapped them with sewing thread first.  I added a small amount of E6000 adhesive to the inside of the crimp before inserting the yarn and crimping it closed.
