It's a bracelet, just in case you couldn't guess. I'll try to remember to include something to give scale, in future pictures. The catch loop is a "regular" three strand plait or braid. When middled it gives six strands to go on with. Next is a four strand, two pass, foot rope knot, ("But wait!" you say, "that is only four strands, don't you have six to work with?" And I reply, "Yes, a strand from each side is left down the middle of the knot.) The main length is a six strand, half round sennit. The finial or catch is a six strand star knot. This is all done in natural color, #18 cotton twine I bought at Alred's Ace Hardware in Pleasant Grove, UT.
I'll be posting variations on this basic theme, using different knots and plaits and materials.
