Pendant Knot
Description: The Pendant Knot
features both small and large loops, along with
weaving and crossed sections, similar to to the
flowing design of many Celtic knots.
The ends come out at the top, making it a
great decorative knot for Macrame necklace
designs.
In the example shown, I used Paracord material,
which needs to be prepared by melting the ends
with a flame.

Step 1: Fold a 36-inch
cord in half to create the first loop,
which is arranged sideways .
The top portion should pass over the
bottom to make the crossing point, which
should be on the right.
Step 2: Bring the end
at the top
around in a counter-clockwise
direction, to make the second loop.
It should be arranged resting under
the first loop.
Turn the knot slightly, so it forms a
pretzel shape.
Step 3: Use the end on
the left
to make a small loop in a clockwise
direction.
Pass it over
- under - over the three
segments in Loop
1 as you bring it down.
Step 4: Make a
counter-clockwise
loop with the end on the
right.
Pass it under
- over - under as you bring it
down to the bottom of the Pendant knot.
Step 5: Cross the ends
left over right, inside
the knot, near the center.
Step 6: Repeat
steps 3 and 4 below
the others.
You can cross the ends one more time
and form a third set of loops if you
wish to change the design.
Step 7: Tighten the
knot by removing the slack from the
large loop first. Then reduce
the size of the small loops.
The ends should be at the top, and can
now be used to make the necklace design.
