Hi everyone today I'm going to show you how to make this beautiful and simple
cord. It's so easy beginners can make it and you can use it for your bags or maybe you can use it
as a belt or use your imagination you can use it anywhere you want. For this one I use a polyester
macrame yarn but it's not important you can use any kind of yarn you choose and I use a
five millimeter hook. If you are ready please don't forget to subscribe to my channel let's start.
For this cord I'm gonna use this kind of tool it's for attaching the cord to the bag
you can use a ring if you want you can use a chain ring maybe but if you don't want to use any of
them I'm gonna show you how you can start. You can find these ones from some hobby shops
you can find them online too just search Essie maybe. If you start if you want to start without
them make a magic ring chain one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. For this cord I'm gonna use seven
it's up to you that will be the thickness of your cord you can make more or less chains.
Now start from the second chain if you want you can turn your chains skip this first one
insert into the second grab the yarn don't make anything insert into the next pull up a loop
next pull up a loop next pull up a loop it's a look like kind of look like a Tunisian
crochet but it's not I have seven loops on the hook now then grab this yarn
pull through all and I will show you the rest in a few seconds that's how you can start
now we will use this one first leave a tail hold the yarn take this tail to the front side
that's our yarn coming from the yarn ball and that's our tail just insert this tail here
we are going to work around this yarn too now that's my first stitch now take the take this
tail in front of the hook wrap it and take it in front again and insert it here again we're
gonna repeat this in front of the hook wrap the yarn take it in front again I'm gonna show you
slowly wrap the yarn around the hook and insert it here I made four five six
seven that's enough for me you can keep repeating as long as you want now hold this yarn this tail
and pull through all these loops insert same loops we will leave this tail is just for now
we made this move because I want to hide it then leave it now we will work with this yarn
we will grab this yarn and pull through all these loops again but the important thing is here
we will not yarn over we will yarn under and with this way it will be easy to use this yarn
for the next row now I will show you yarn under pull through now we will um collect the loops again
we will take them between these two loops and from this yarn there is two strands except this
one don't count this one there's two strands one of them is coming from the yarn and you can move
it easily but you cannot move this one that's the reason we are not yarning over grab this yarn
pull it insert between these two pull up a loop inside between next to pull up a loop
next to pull up a loop next to pull up a loop and one more what happens if you yarn over I'm going
show it to you yarn over pull through now when you open here that's the this one the yarn is yarn
which is coming from the hook it's not hard to fix it but why why you fix it for each row
we have an easy way yarn under pull through one two three four five six yarn under pull through
just repeat this as long as you want I'm gonna complete this and I'm I will show you how to
attach the other one see you there I completed and now I'm gonna attach the other one
insert the yarn from this hole and insert your hook into this first stitch
into this loop from back to front grab this loop pull through insert the yarn from back to front
again insert your hook into this stitch from back to front grab the yarn pull through
insert the yarn from here insert the hook from the back grab the yarn pull through
I'm gonna I'm gonna repeat this it's not hard as it looks it's so easy insert from here
all this process is too easy and it's fun to make because I don't like to
always work same things always single crochets double crochets and I like to
work on new things and if you are same with me you will like it like this one too
that's the last one and just for the secure I will wrap the yarn one more time
here you can use a yarn needle you can use a smaller hook for hiding tail insert from here
I'm gonna take the yarn to the back side insert from here
and repeat this for a few more times if you want when you cut here you can burn
this yarn there's a polyester macrame yarn you can burn it and it will not open
easily it will never open actually and that's all just hide the tail
in here too and that's ready to use and that's all I hope you like this tutorial if you like
