Time to start the knot! Take the left string and make a "4" shape by crossing it over the other color and pulling it under. You will see a small knot form if you have done it correctly.

Now you will do almost the same thing. Take he string on the right and make a backwards four and pull it through the bottom. You will start to see this interesting design appear. Continue doing this and alternating right and left strands.

Keep going and it should look like this. If you do not want to add charms, you can stop right here.
