I would like to make a necklace using only lacrosse string tied into a loop, however using simple knots, the string just slips. Can anybody tell me what knot would be good to hold a necklace together?
im assuming your using shooters

I have been looking all over the internet and cannot seem to find an answer to this. I am aware that Things Remembered engraves things but only in certain characters. I am looking for a place that could possibly engrave a necklace by hand? But I need a place where they can engrave something in Arabic. Does anybody know a place where they could do that?
first, know what world do u want engraved,then find it’s arabic matching word,get that world printed in a paper . later. go to a good silver or gold shop, at ur town ,and ask it to hand make u your word in a necklace , after ofcourse u gave them the printed paper with ur world on it in the hand writing that u want . they will sure be able to make it to u , if not they will give u a name of a shop the does those things.
to find the arabic world and it’s meaning. use the internet .

I’ve been looking for it for quite sometime now and can’t seem to find it. It has two brown squares on a necklace and I’m pretty sure they have religious figures on the front of them. any help is appreciated!
That is the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. It is designed as an abbreviate version of the Carmelite habit.
Many still wear it, and those who do may be "enrolled" into the Brown Scapular by a priest. Our Lady has made several promises to those who piously wear the Brown Scapular as a sign of great devotion to her, most prominently: "Take this Scapular. Whosoever dies wearing it shall not suffer eternal fire. It shall be a sign of salvation, a protection in danger and pledge of peace."

For Christmas I got my girlfriend a diamond necklace in the shape of a Treble Clef (She sings so I thought she’d like something music related). For her birthday I wanted to get her a bracelet or earrings to match the necklace, I can’t find it anywhere and I really want to find it. She means a lot to me and I don’t wanna get her some piece of crap.

I am going to make a friendship bracelet with 24 strings. Each string is used for the same amount of knots. How long should each string be?
For most of my bracelets, I use 44" (about 1.25yds) for each strand. The only time I add more is if I need an extra-long bracelet, or one color is used significantly more than others. I recently made a 24-strand bracelet and used my usual 44" and it came out fine - about 5.5" of knotting, which fits my wrist well. I probably could have gotten another 1/2" of knotting if I’d needed it.

I bought a really cheap bracelet and the black color rubbed off onto my arm. How can I stop it from doing that?
try using clear nail polish over the bracelet.

I have 4 half inch long beads, enough hemp for anything, and then a metal circle that has a little circle to tie hemp through, and a metal stick with a little circle on it to tie hemp through. The stick will go through the circle to secure it on my wrist. My wrist is about 6 and a half inches around. I just want to make a simple square knot bracelet. Can anyone tell me how to do one with these supplies? Thanks!
I think, basically, you’d take a length of hemp that’s longer than you think you’ll need, thread it through the first ring (you can start with either the stick end or the circle end), start tying, thread on the beads at appropriate intervals, and end up by tying the hemp to the other end piece.
But I’ve never made a hemp bracelet before, so that’s just a guess.
You can get an estimate of how much hemp you’ll need by measuring a length, tying it as you will for the bracelet, then measuring it again.

I want to make a bracelet using embroidering floss in a simple two color block pattern. I want there to be a block of each color repeating as it goes. But all the patterns online are for the more attractive or crazy looking styles, anyone know a pattern similar to what I’ve described?
Two colours, alternating pattern? Sounds to me like the checkerboard pattern… there is nothing else. Sometimes called basketweave as well.
