1, first of all, prepare the materials, as shown in the figure below, scissors, multicolored thread, lighter and a bead.
2. Make eye buttons first, fold the two multicolored lines in half from the middle part, and then stagger the two lines slightly.
3. Start to weave the diamond knot, that is, make a circle, one thread passes through another circle, and when the length is almost the same, change the thread.
4. Put the braided diamond knot in the original position, then arbitrarily choose a line to braid a lark knot, and then tighten it.
5. After the first thread is made up of larks, the second thread can be made up in the same way until all five threads are made up.
6. After the final knitting, thread the beads into five threads, then tie them with a knot, and then burn them with a lighter, so that the multicolored rope bracelet is knitted.
Knitting method:
1, corn knot
The beginning of a corn knot is usually two ropes crossed, and then the operation is started with the four rope ends thrown out. It will be clearer if we use four colors here. You can understand blue and yellow as two ends of a rope, and brown and red as two ends of another line.
Next, the blue goes around your fingers and presses on the brown. Brown is on yellow. Yellow is on red. The red line passes through the circle of the blue line and is tightened after adjustment. Repeat the above steps to complete the corn knot.
2. Diamond knot
The diamond knot can be woven with one rope folded in half or mixed with two ropes. Here we still use different colors to distinguish it. Press the yellow rope onto the red rope first, and then come out from behind the red rope, leaving a circle at this time. Then put it on the red rope, which passes through the circle left by the yellow rope from the front. Tightening after finishing, a knot is completed. Repeat the above steps to complete the diamond junction.
Brief introduction of multicolored rope
Multicolored rope, also known as multicolored silk, multicolored silk, etc., is a holiday custom of the Han nationality. Generally, colorful silk is worn on the Dragon Boat Festival to ward off evil spirits, and it also has a beautiful meaning of praying for Naji. Multicolored rope originated from the concept of five elements in ancient China. During the Dragon Boat Festival, the pure yang in heaven and earth is full of vital qi, and it is an important custom to use the pure yang in heaven and earth to eliminate yin evil.
Among many customs to ward off evil spirits, tying arms with five-color silk thread was once a very popular festival custom. Spread to later generations, the five-color silk has developed into many kinds of beautiful ornaments, and its production has become increasingly exquisite, becoming a unique folk art of the Dragon Boat Festival.
