Lanyard Instructions: Tying The Knot

 

By Phyllis Chapman 

Here are some ways you can tie up a non slipping lanyard using the following:

A large loop, a small loop. Using only one knot to do this.

The first step is the place the rope down on a flat surface in an S formation. Make sure the ends of the lanyard are overlapping by a few inches. Next tie a single overhanded knot in all the three different strands. Make sure the strands are even as you gently tighten up the knot.

The second step is to tie the overhand knot on the center strand where everything merges. Put one end of the strand through the overhand from one of the sides of the knot, and the other knot through the other. Pull the strands together over the central overhand knot you just created.

The third step is to create an interlocking overhand knot. Place the other end of the strand through the top knot in the overhand knot.

As you can imagine it will take some practice to get an even looking knot. However like tying a tie, it will get better with more and more practice and trial and error. Feel free to treat this as a recipe to base your own unique concoction out of.
