Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

1. I used square knots in between each bead. Use your middle cord and place it over and down through the shell, then slide the shell up into place. Once you have slide the shell into place create a square knot and pull tight to hold shell taut.

Step

Step 2

Now take the middle cord and string it from underneath and pull it through the top and over.
Create another square knot and this will hold it in place.

Step

Step 3

3.Add as many square knots in between each shell. I added 3 knots in between each shell and used 6 shells. In the finished picture I used a 20 lb hemp cord. Finish it off with a clasp or slip-knot. Hemp, leather, or waxed linen look great with these shells.
