Guide step %d
1   Cut six 35 cm pieces of bamboo cord. Double them over and tie them around the beading hoop with the Lark's head knot (Frivolite knot). In the instructions the cords are referred to a cord No. 1 to 12 from the left.

2   Start in the middle by braiding loop knots. Hold cord 6 taut and – with cord 5 – braid two knots as shown in the photo. A loop knot consists of two windings. The first part is made by moving cord 5 over the taut cord 6 and into the large loop as shown at the top of the photo. Tighten thus creating half a knot. Make the second part of the knot by moving the loose cord (cord 5) over the taut cord 6 and into the loop. Tighten. See the drawing in step 13 for further guidance.
