Checkered pineapple knots on a lighter, tied with electric blue Type I/#95 paracord and white 2mm mini blind string.  I followed the diagrams from Tom Hall's book, "Introduction to Turk's Head Knots" to tie the knot around the cap, then tied a longer four bight TH for the base knot on the lighter body using the same pattern.

Bead and lanyard made by me.

Sweet Ash! looks like you and the lathe are working together just fine!

[Ashley]

Oh, we keep having problems and its cost an arm an leg to get started and I still need quite a few things but it's an enjoyable experience.

Is there a video somewhere showing how to do this type of hitching?

Cow hitching is done similarly to half hitching/needle hitching, same type of process, just making the cow hitch/larks head each time instead of a half hitch.

Have you considered making a mankini? 

I've not tied any knot underwear, but it is , lol...

Master of paracord is back in da house!

Can't remember the last time I tied a double knife lanyard knot with fixed loops on either side, and ended up going over the doubled knot with a gutted orange paracord gaucho knot.

That one strand star knot, it's like my nemesis 

Great work all the way, Ashley

I have a question for you fellow paracordists...

I'm going to make a lanyard for the Explorer I'm gifting to my brother and I have no clue whatsoever what to make...

Should I keep it simple, just couple nice knots OR should I make a weave/sinnet?

[Stormdrane]

A couple of two-strand stopper knots, before and after the mandala knot.

Sweet, no black/red or black/neon green? It's to bad it can't be inner weaved every other color and not just one on one side and one on the other..

I used the neon green and neon orange since I was making a video tutorial, and the lighter colors hopefully make it easier to see the progression of tying the knot.  If the colors of the knotted disks could be worked in a banded color style, they might start to look like peppermint candy or similar, and I could find myself tempted to start chewing on my lanyards, lol...

I had a knife like that when I was in the Coast Guard in the 1960's.

I think I gifted that one before I knew I collected!  I retired USCG * hand salute*
