Tied in
knots
by Linda Augsburg
I had so much fun making the polka-dot necklace for the July
issue that I wanted to do another, but the challenge was to make
it look completely different. Sleek cording and cube-shaped
Hill Tribes silver beads offer a contemporary combination,
much different from the free-spirited bright beads in
the first version. I like to twist the three strands
together for a unified statement.

1.
Cut three 6-ft. (1.83m) lengths of cord. Apply a thin
layer of Fray Check to a

-in. (13mm) section on the
ends of each cord and let dry.
3.
Fold the cord in half. Tie an overhand knot 3 in.
(76mm) from the cut ends.
2.
String 14 or more beads on each cord. Set two
cords aside.

both cords in an overhand knot next to the bead,
