Quick Project Steps
Stretch the Griffin Silk Cord to eliminate kinks and prevent future stretching.
Tie a knot at one end of the silk cord and attach a knot cover to conceal the knot and create a loop for the clasp.
Begin adding beads, starting with a Tubelet bead followed by a knot. Use a hand knotting technique or tools like tweezers to assist with tight, close knots.
Follow a simple pattern of three Tubelet beads followed by one 4mm round turquoise bead, ensuring knots are placed between each bead or group of beads.
Continue the beading and knotting process until you reach the desired length of the necklace.
To finish, secure the final knot, trim excess silk cord, attach the second knot cover, and add the clasp components.
Optionally, create multiple strands for a thicker necklace or a longer piece to wear as a wrap bracelet.

The website is easily navigable and I like the option to omit out-of-stock items from turning up in searches. My orders are always processed promptly and well packaged for shipping. On the rare occasions that I receive an incorrect item I have always been fully satisfied by its resolution. Potomac has long been one of my favorite vendors and they often have things I can't get anywhere else. One thing I wish they would do is put the manufacturer item code (like TR-08-999 or DP-401FR) on the label, since sometimes name of a finish will get changed; it would make it easier to find the same color again since the color code stays the same.
Super easy with just what I was looking for with extra choices that were unexpected.

I spent half an hour trying to login, my password didn’t work and yet the software wouldn’t let me change my password. I couldn’t even set up a new account. Frustrating 10!
