I get lots of messages asking where to buy supplies so here is a list!

Beautiful, Thank You!!

Hello! Beautiful prayer rope. How many arm lengths of cord did you use for this?? Thanks for the tutorial!

[@orthodoxprayerropes6134]

About 5-6 arm lengths

[@Dad_In_The_Box]

I measured out six yards of 2mm rattail and it was only just long enough for 40 knots. How did you manage 50 knots with only six arm lengths? I’m just starting out on this so possibly I’ve missed something important.

[@jedi008]

I use #95 paracord (from Paracord Planet) and to do 40 knots is about 8 yards, so for 50 use 10 yards. Also if you find yourself a bit short, you can temporary lengthen the cords by tying a string or thread to each one and then cut to length after. These tutorials are the best and I could not have done one with out watching these first!!! Thank you. Prayer Rope Lady!!!

[@waynerogers5485]

Thanks a lot. You .might find that a Saddler's Needle works better than a thumb tack as a fid; handles easier, doesn't fray the cord or draw blood when you stick yourself.

[@orthodoxprayerropes6134]

Thanks for the tip! I actually sand down the sharp tip so it’s very dull. I have tried large blunt needles but I find them hard to hold.

[@ChrisShockz]

@@orthodoxprayerropes6134Ive seen people use really good tweezers and it works well and doesnt damage threads at all like needles.

[@scoobydone]

Nice work, God bless you! May I ask the dimensions of this blue cord? Looks great, Спаси Господи.

[@orthodoxprayerropes6134]

2mm thick

[@followthehoofprint]

How do you get your knots so nice and round for the loop of the prayer rope? Mine always end up wonky and not round

[@orthodoxprayerropes6134]

If the cord you are using isn't smooth and causes friction as it rubs on itself that could be a cause. The trick to even knots is using a perfect amount of pressure when pulling the loops through--not too tight or too loose. You might be tying them too tight, keep the knot held tightly when you are pulling it up next to the previous knot, but when you're pulling the loops through the knot you can keep things looser and make sure you don't pull too hard or too loosely at any one step.

[@ВиталийМазеп]

Hello! Could you tell me which cord to do it from? What is the thickness?

[@sethbuchanan1566]

Hello, have you ever considered using four strand diamond knot, or four strand crown and diamond knots to construct the crosses? I find that I use them quite often in my own prayer ropes, they please my eye. They also look vaguely similar to the rest of the knots. Have a nice day. Respectfully, Seth.

[@orthodoxprayerropes6134]

Thank you for your comment! I do sometimes on other style crosses, but box knot style is how my dad taught me to finish the prayer rope, so that's why I like to do it :)

@@orthodoxprayerropes6134 I understand, thank you for your response.

Do you have a photo, Seth?

@@katherinegeorge2400 I do, however, I am not aware of any way of displaying it via KZbin.

Это большой крест 6+8+2+2 с обрезкой концов. Есть крест поменьше 3+4+1+1 где боковые узлы плетутся особым образом, с выведением концов в противоположную сторону (при окончательном стягивании) через последнюю петлю. Два конца с обеих сторон складываются под углом и продолжают плестись коробочные узлы (4). Таким образом крест получается без обрезки и прижиганий. Можете выложить туториал.

[@brcolumbadechamps6083]

How i need to start to make this one?

[@ВиталийМазеп]

Здравствуйте! Подскажите пожалуйста, из какой нити вы плетете?

[@ΓεωργίαΠαπαδάκη-ι7ψ]

[@servicemotorsdevon9265]

Where did you get the cord? What is it called

[@orthodoxprayerropes6134]

It's 2mm satin rattail cord in blue. You can get it on Amazon, ebay, etsy, or most craft stores/websites

Ну зачем текстом перекрывать видео, не могу понять как крест дальше плести…

Зачем так быстро показываете, можно помедленнее чтоб кто то научился и в правду, надо помедленнее чтоб смог получить человек правильный ответ, только так может кто то у вас научиться
