    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Cording: Measure and cut 3 feet each of two colors of Rattail Satin Cording.
    Forming the Base Loop: Fold the cords to create a loop at one end, tying an overhand knot to secure it.
    Starting the Square Knot: Align the cords with two in the center and one of each color on the sides.
    Use the longer side cord to create a "snoopy nose" loop over the center cords, threading the other side cord over and through the loop.
    Continuing the Pattern: Repeat the process, alternating the side that creates the initial loop, to build the bracelet length.
    Finishing the Bracelet: Once desired length is reached, secure the ends with an overhand knot.
    Trim excess cord and apply a dab of glue for extra security.
    Final Touches: Test the loop and knot for fit and adjust as necessary.
