I've just started making my own Paracord Rosaries after having bought Rugged Rosary products. They make great rosaries, but I like the feeling of making my own. I don't sell them, but I do gift them to special people in my life. Your video was helpful to me, especially the finishing of the end Crucifix knot and the twisting that I got in my earlier rosaries. I want them to not twist, and you helped me with that. God bless you for doing this.

Hello I have picked up some pretty helpful to about the Paracord rosary For a project I've decided to make rosaries for Lent first time. How long should your cord be? And do you work one side at a time? The crucifix they are father the hell berries in the our father is added separately? Together at the end thanks for the help

So I’d like to thank you so very much for taking the time do such an awesome step by step guide. I recently purchased a rosary off TikTok for more money than it was worth. Now said rosary has been corrected to 5 decades not the 6 decades it came with and a knot missing here or there. I’ll now be purchasing SS beads and upgrading my next rosary but this one will always be my first personally made. Thank you

Great, simple explanation. Thanks!

Great job and thanks for the valuable info! Making one this weekend with my son 👍🏼

[@JLeighBralick]

Thank you so much for this! I was trying to make some for giveaways using plastic pony beads but I think the hole must be just a smidge too small, because no matter how pointy I made the paracord I could NOT get both strands through! But I just melted the short strand after the central knot and made sure to melt it onto the knot a bit…I think it will be ok. Really appreciate the video and all the resources!

Love the video! Such a big help in making my rosary. I was wondering what size split ring did you use, because the one that came with the crucifix is not working good. Thanks for making this video!

[@realholyrosaries]

I use 9mm but 7 or 8 should also work

[@alc3062]

Hey thanks for sharing your craft. Idk why it took me so long to see how you use the 2nd our father bead (2nd one after the first 3 hail Mary') as the center piece. It literally took me to making my own one of these to figure it out 😂. None the less it's really cool method and a very good vid. Thanks again for showing us how to do this I been wanting to make one of my own forever.

[@realholyrosaries]

Thank you for the kind comment! God bless you!

[@Andree-AnneMailloux-by7eo]

Looks awesome and so much easier! Couple of questions. 1. Do you put the 2 in crucifixes from the evangelist store on the 550 paracord rosaries or are they too small? 2. Where do you find the gold and bronze beads? What hole size are they? And do they work on 550 paracord? Thank you! I look forward to hearing from you! *Edited cause I found two of my questions when I rewatched the video lol

[@realholyrosaries]

1. Yes I do use them and they are big enough. You can also use 3in crucifixes which I use from time to time but those are harder to find and more expensive. 2. I bought some brass hand turned “gold” beads on Etsy a while back that were great but expensive. For 550 cord you’re going to want to at least get a 4.5mm hole in the 8mm bead

[@marysedita7326]

This is the best tutorial for a barrel knot I have seen ! Ty. So much information. God bless

[@maggiegonzalez7117]

Very nice!!!

[@JustKarl961]

This is awesome!

[@glee181]

Qs: Any problems with going 1 wrapping less with the barrel knot to make a smaller knot? And, are you doing anything special if a metal center piece is to be included, separating the decades and the crucifix tail?

[@realholyrosaries]

No you can indeed do just 2 wraps instead of 3 when tying the barrel knot and it won’t effect the strength of the rosary at all. The strength of the rosary will however be affected if you add a traditionally styled rosary centerpiece onto it with little rings or something similar. However there are in fact centerpieces made specifically for paracord rosaries that function similar to a bead

[@FatherDavidMichael]

Hey I would love to ask some questions about this! is there a way to contact you?

[@mr.smith.]

Excellent! Can I please just ask, what is the size (in mm) of the beads and the paracord you're using in this video? 😀

[@realholyrosaries]

The paracord is around 4mm give or take, and the beads are 8mm with a 4.5mm hole

[@jb5997]

I love the one pictured at the end of the video with the bullets. Are those 9mm casings and 12mm beads?

[@realholyrosaries]

9mm casings and 10mm beads

[@juanit0tackit0tackito2]

I noticed that you use a different size bead than the 8mm with thinner paracord, they seem not to be only 1 size smaller than the 8mm, maybe 7 or 6mm? Do you mind telling me what size it is?

Very nice! Question: if instead you want to use a rosary centerpiece, I assume you use the same knots as used to attach the crucifix?

Go check the community tab, I JUST made a post about it to make it clearer then I probably could in words

[@realholyrosaries]

@@joshdalf9493 if you’re talking about 5:47 yes I do that with both micro cord and nano cord as well. It helps to even out the tension and tighten the knot, as well as makes it look better

Have you ever made a 20 decade rosary. I am going to attempt to make one since i've been praying the entire rosary everyday. Do you happen to know the length of paracord i would need for this? I have a very large roll of black paracord. I don't want to just cut anymore cuz i'd be worried that i cut it too short and don't want to waste the cord bcuz i plan on making a couple more after this one.

Do you use a 10 mm bead for the Our Father bead at the end? I'm having trouble fitting both paracord at the end through an 8 mm bead.

Yes I used 10mm for the our Father beads but you can also use 8mm (I do sometimes as well) as long as it has a 5mm hole it should work👌

Funny thing happened to me today this lady asked me she wanted a Paracord rosary 📿 I was so excited right so what o did I didn’t have enough the metal to use on the rosary so I use a acrylic beads and for the our fathers I use the metal she seem happy with it but then after she asked me for a rosary bag but I was so nervous I forgot it at home so by the time I came back and give her the bag she says oh I change my mind this is fake I’m like huh 😮 then she explained to me she wanted a stone one 🤦🏻‍♀️ well I’m just starting making these I don’t know anything about it yet so I lost a sale because I use acrylic. Not stones beads 😬 sorry I usually don’t text this much but you seemed like a nice person you helped me the other day that’s why I was asking if you make the ones with stones as well lol I tried to look at Amazon I saw something but it’s not as round like a regular bead so I’m not sure 😅ok I’m done texting 😆

[@realholyrosaries]

Yes, thank you for the question, I have, but I used micro cord (it can hold 90lbs it’s basically a mini version of paracord that’s about 1mm thick) the beads hade a 1.5mm hole and I got them at Hobby Lobby. I haven’t come across any stone beads with a big enough hole to use on normal 550 paracord yet though

im almost finished with my first rosary. i have a question. on the part where you close the five decade rosary on the center. where you have the long and short string to tie. you tied the long one over the short one. I did the oposite I tied the short one over the long one. did i do something wrong? will it fall apart. I pulled on it and it seems to be ok. thanks for the video.

[@realholyrosaries]

It could theoretically slip out if you tie the short one around the long one. But if you don’t need a super strength rosary then you should be fine
