How to do it

2. Cut a 40cm piece of macramé cord. Double over and feed the loop through the spacer bead's eyelet, then feed the two ends of the cord through the loop and pull. Repeat this procedure at the other side. Secure one end onto the macramé board.

3. Cut a piece of macramé cord measuring approx. 90cm. Double it over and arrange it so that the middle is underneath the two cords attached to the spacer bead's eyelet. Start braiding tightly. For further instructions, see “Braiding Techniques” on our “Jewellery School” website.

4. Braid a 6.5cm section on each side of the spacer bead. NB: in order to save macramé cord, you may attach a clasp at the side.
