Thank you, this video helped me make my birth mala for my first baby and now finishing my second one for the next baby!

[@heidimichellelotusbutterfl4976]

Nice! Thank you for your thoughtful explanation.

[@belindamiller7808]

Love the spiritual meanings. I always wondered about that. Namaste

[@SPACESHARK420]

just to point out one mistake, the tassel gets finished in another knot... but well.... traditions and real knowledge dont mean nothing anymore its only aesthetics and capitalism today... NAMASTE

[@NatashaPereira1991]

Excellent tutorial. This is the right technique to make a durable mala. Knotting needs to be done in between beads and how to use the focal bead tied to the tassel. Adding a bead cone or metal tassel cap to the tassel will have an overall good look to the mala.

[@maryannesbeading2033]

Would u know type of thread, yarn or cording best used?

Wonderful video Is there a video that shows how you made the Mala? I want to understand how you made one end into the loop and why?

[@paulavicuna8510]

Hola hermoso trabajo Felicidades😍😍 no haces pulseras?

[@No_art_for_shiva]

Im like 10 seconds in and stumped, whats knotted. And whats looped?

[@TempleOfTheMartyrs]

thats not a guru bead, guru beads have 3 holes , not 2

[@mountainharmonyyoga2260]

This is a great tutorial. Thank you! Where do you get the string to form the tassel?

[@A._.A._.]

thanks for this video! A question, what material do you use as your cord?

[@viroxxx]

Wow

[@sherri54]

it would be so nice if you'd answer the questions that people have been asking you over the past 2 years

[@draike1]

Thank you Sharon. I have shared my reply below :) Hello everyone! Thank you for your kind comments and your patience on my answer to your questions! Here are some answers below: -Tassel: You can purchase tassel thread at any crafts store in the embroidery section (they come in every color!) and simply wind the thread around your four fingers about 40 times to create the tassel you see in the video! -Knotting thread: I use nylon thread for the knotting thread because it is more durable and unlikely to break than the embroidery thread. -Mala Kit(s) for Purchase: In each kit I include 112 beads, knotting and tassel threads, guru bead, a needle for threading and instructions on how to create your Mala. You can purchase a mala kit(s) directly via my instagram account @vinyoga_flow, via my Vinyoga Flow Facebook account: facebook.com/vinyogaflowmovement/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel&eid=ARBGECmTqWNk-HEb9fdbb4EfT1D5Qc37SULdB3adI2BpNVqbiyJSY4oSnaWO866XCTEJMXyk1sGXUDR5 Or email me directly: [e-mail] Thanks!

[@יפיתקמחי]

many thanks! can you pls explain how we get the double loop at the end ? do you put the gemstone on a double cord ?

[@draike1]

Thank you for your comment! I simply cut a long piece of nylon and tie the two ends together then use the loop at the other end to thread my beads on the double cord. I'm working on another video showing these first steps!
