Finally, a video that just gets down to it with a clear view, and its from 8 yrs ago!

[@broadcastsunny]

Thank you! 😘 - and yes, it's an oldie but it still gets quite a bit of views. It's so weird to think how far I've come to learn better ways to make these videos

[@evita2351]

FINALY, thank you! You saved my bracelet. At the end of making it it's thread got too short. I was very upset, but then i found this video and fixed it! THANK YOU sooooo much again!!! :)

[@passionmotifMusic]

I can tie my broken shoelace again. Thank you for this tutorial.

Wow 10/10 BEST KNOT MAKING SO EASY TO FOLLOW IM DEFINITELY "KNOT" GONNA NEED TO LEARN MORE

[@broadcastsunny]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@brianbudich7820]

Very easy to follow instructions, and very effective. I used it to tie the brake cable on bike together when it snapped & it's still holding strong. I haven't even bothered to get a new cable. Lol, thank you!

[@broadcastsunny]

Excellent. I found this is very handy knot.

[@FinetalPies]

I can't like this video twice but this is the second time I've looked it up and found it very clear and useful

[@juelz4444]

I don't remember if I commented over a yr ago when I first found this awesome tutorial!but if not I am here to say it again.! Lifesaver!!

[@Jesuschristiskingandlord2024]

Explained perfectly! I tried watching a man do his and he didn't explain, just had music playing. I got yours on my first try! Thank you.

[@tomasasaad4625]

Excellent video, very clear and quick explanation

Glad it was helpful!

[@juliantabe007]

Thank you Sunny! I needed a strong knot for my broken boot laces!

[@antorosas911]

Thanks! My guitar string broke and until I get a new set this helped me. I made the knot to tie the new string and a little bit of an old string

[@broadcastsunny]

Rock on!

[@normagedd0n]

Thanks for such a helpful video! I used it almost a year ago to tie the ends of an elastic cord that I attached to my phone case as a leash. I am now using it again to do the exact same thing, because the string wore out (not the knot! It stayed the whole time!) 😀

[@LazyAnimexo]

Thank you, extremely simple yet immensely effective!

[@whammeister3002]

Very easy and worked perfectly for the necklaces I needed to make! Thank you very much

[@normagedd0n]

Saw I visited this video 5 mos. ago and here I am again. Great knot!

[@broadcastsunny]

Awesome! It is a handy knot - I like this one and the fisherman knot

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

Kind of a pretty knot too! I just got a new compass and wanted to tie the lanyard string together with something a bit more secure and "cool" than the overhand. We'll see how long it lasts!

[@dtbfredo24]

The only knot that was made from watching this video was the one left on my brain after trying to figure it out >.> I feel like there's a way easier/better way to explain the process of doing it.

Nice. Good job.

Thanks!!!

[@mirriwinni]

Todd K: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrick_bend shows that the Carrick Bend and the Double Coin Knot are just different names for the same knot. If as you say they are not the same, what then is the difference?

[@Karisma77]

Awesome ty

[@broadcastsunny]

You bet!

[@hadi-bx1xo]

You can literally just tie two simple knots without fully pulling the first one

[@broadcastsunny]

cool, cool, cool - go for it.

Glad I could help - handy knot :)

One of my favorite knots

[@johnstrain8861]

U saved a life

[@oliverliddell613]

This is not the easy way to tie a Carrick Bend. I can do it in less than10 seconds. It is ridiculously simple. The only knot to be named after a person. I give you credit for tying it the hard way.

[@broadcastsunny]

Hah - ok. Teaching usually takes longer than just knowing.

[@server1ok]

I almost went under going over this

[@sohebr6540]

Great thx

[@deaglecombat8954]

Thickness of it?

[@bryantreacher5793]

This is not a Carrick bend as you think because the ends are on the same side it is a wake knot

[@chhattebuhr]

Thank you!!:)

[@TK-cl1jm]

Edit: I don't know about stronger, maybe it is just easier to untie?

[@MadmanGoneMad2012]

Doesn't work as well with thick ropes; they slip, slide and untangle.

[@alyssacoleman1102]

you should try making a bigger one

[@CharlesTheClumsy]

I will knot fail!

😂

[@Dannifit]

Thanks...easy instruction.

[@1luckytexan605]

I dunno what it's name is, But it isn't a correct carrick bend. The working ends should be on opposite sides of the knot.

[@victormalkos2967]

Hello Tricia hahahahah

[@zux7594]

you coverring everything lady! :c

[@edenmairay60]

My fish is hurt and can't swim properly so I'm making her a floaty device and yes it's a girl fish

[@user-tj8k6ex02z]

Dont know name of this bend but its definitely _not_ Carrick Bend. This bend is far inferior to Carrick one.

[@broadcastsunny]

I hear ya, that's why I put it there - I realize there are different learners

[@hayleyjune1868]

I don't get it

[@broadcastsunny]

Ah, but it is .... when you make the loop in the beginning, make the working end on the opposite side, so that the top that you place to make the loop is the longer end.
