Knot

  • With silks together, take one hand around the outside, all the way around one full time, silks will be wrapped around the wrist
  • With the other hand, pull the tails up and into the hand that is wrapped, making a big loop (it is more difficult to bring silks through if the loop is too small
  • Pull the wrapped hand that is now holding tails through the loop, using free hand to help, creating another loop below
  • Push down on this new loop, which will tighten the first loop you created
  • Take both hands and place on top of know and push down to tighten, your knot is ready for use
  • To take apart, split tails and pull in opposite directions
