Knotty Pirate: Snake Knot Lanyard

Snake Knot Lanyard

10:34 PM | Labels: knots, Paracord |

I wanted to make a lanyard to keep my "Every Day Carry" stuff handy.

Here you see the finished project...

I started with a Lanyard Knot on a loop.

The Lanyard Knot is a very simple knot to tie and adds a little bit of decorative flair to the lanyard.

Then begin to tie the Snake Knot.

You will continue to tie the Snake Knot until you reach the desired length.

TIP: I always use forceps when tying the Snake Knot. It just makes things a bit easier.

Now give yourself a couple of inches to make a loop. This loop will be used to attach to the carabiner.

Now tie another Lanyard Knot.

Carefully cut off the remaining ends and melt to prevent from fraying.
