How to do it

1 Cut a 90 cm piece of cotton cord. Thread a jewellery pendant with two loops onto the cotton cord as shown in the picture.

2 Secure the glass cabochon jewellery pendant on the clip board and start braiding. Make a knot by placing the two cords as shown in the picture so that they form an reverse teardrop shape.

3 Take the cord on the right and place it underneath the teardrop and over the cord on the left. Now take the cord on the left and place it over the teardrop and underneath the cord on the right. This picture shows what the knot looks like just before tightening the cords.

5 Keep braiding following the procedure described in step 3. When the braided section measures approx. 6.5 cm, repeat the procedure on the opposite side of the glass cabochon jewellery pendant.

6 Arrange the 2 x 2 cords parallel with each other. Cut a new piece of cotton cord for the macramé fastening described in steps 7-11.
