    I guess this is a macramé necklace?

    I have a professional hemp jewelry business. Tying strings in doesn't meet my standards. I reccommend starting with more string than you need so you don't run out then you can just cut the excess off.

    I do not understand past step 3 and I used to know how to make these. Some pictures would be nice it almost feels like there is a small step missing with the left strand.

    You can also secure the loop of the knot by pinning it on a notice board or tear up a card board box, placing it either on a table or your lap.

    There are two ways to make a hemp necklace-try a spiral and a straight. You can even switch both back and forth to make an awesome design. Also try incorporating beads and other items into your necklace to make it yours.

    Light a candle and let the wax melt. Dip the ends of the hemp in it for easy beading.

    To take the itch away, just put conditioner on it, or while your making jewelry put lotion on your hands.

    If you want a fat center to your design, use rope instead of more hemp. This saves on the amount of hemp you use while accomplishing a radical look. It won't work with designs that switch cords (as in the switch knot), but it works well with the basic knots.

    To hold down the necklace while making it, pin it with a safety pin to a chair, couch, or carpet and you can do it while watching TV.

    You can buy a clasp at the craft section in WalMart. These clasps have metal loops. Just tie each end of the necklace/ hemp to each side of the clasp. This is a much more professional look.

    Take a dowel rod and place a nail in it. Bend the nail up, and hook the hoop to the nail.

    Don't tie more hemp on if you run out! It makes it really hard to use. Don't tape it either, then the hemp won't bend well. Tacky glue or glue gun the ends together. That way it bends and it won't look weird with a knot.

    For the middle strands, add four inches to the length you want your necklace/bracelet/anklet to be, and double it. Fold it in half. There are your two middle strands. There's not a ton of extra to cut off at the end. For the outside strands do the preparation steps, except only make one really long strand instead of two, because you made the short one for the middle.

    Take one piece of hemp, then measure the length you want your necklace or bracelet to be. Add two inches. Then you double the length. Then take two arm lengths (twice the size of your "wing span") for a necklace or 1 1/2 lengths for a bracelet. Then your only using two pieces.

    If you find that it is hard after a while to put on the beads, take a normal candle and start to burn it. Take the wax and just barely put the tip in it then smooth it out. You can re-smooth it over and over again. And if the candle is scented, you have an added bonus.
