Anleitung: Blumenkette im Paracord-Look
Instructions No. 1124And it's that easy:
What do I need for a flower chain?
You will need a satin cord and two metal or plastic rings. And some beads if you like.
How do I knot the floral wreath?
To make a pretty flower, a long Cord of about 3.50 m was hung on a metal ring of about 2.5 cm diameter. The ring is knotted together on both sides with approx. 15 loop knots. The ring is no longer visible.
It is important to always leave some space between the individual knots and to make sure that the arcs become even.
Tie a 2 m long Cord at each end of the cord with weaver knots. Tie weaver knots on both sides with three to eight weaver knots and braid each with three threads in between. Both tapes are finished with weaver knots.
Which knot pattern is used?
For the left Ribbon you knot as follows:
8 WK (weaver knots), 4 cm braid, 4 WK, 6.5 cm braid, 5 WK, 4 cm braid, 2 WK.
For the right Ribbon you knot as follows:
5 WK, 4 cm braid, 5 WK, 6 cm braid, 7 WK, 4 cm braid. WK until both strands are of equal length.
For the fastener the thread of a weaver knot tape is pulled through the last two weaver knots of the other knot tape with a crochet hook in opposite directions and after approx. 10 cm an overhand knot is added. Fix all cord ends on the backside with glue, if necessary sew on additionally.
A slightly smaller metal or plastic ring was used for the small flower. With a different coloured Cord of about 2 m, tie the small ring with about 15 loop knots around each other (see step 1), also leave eyelets between the single knots and tighten the knots very tight. Sew the cord ends on the backside.
Last but not least: the pearl knot
The pearl knot is made from a different coloured Cord . For this, place the short Cord of about 30 cm in the middle and the long Cord, of about 60 cm, with three weaver knots in such a way that a small loop is created. Pull the guides through the loop. Pull the guides tight and fix the bead knot with a weaver knot. Sew all four threads on the back.
