Make your own DIY cross, luck will come to you

In ancient times in the West, the cross was a terrible instrument of torture. Jesus was crucified on the cross. Now, the cross is a symbol of Christianity, and many people like to wear crossesAccessories, such as necklaces, pendants, earrings and other accessories. People who wear crosses hope to get the blessings of Jesus Blessing also means hoping for happiness. Today I will teach you how to use red rope to make a cross. I am just teaching you how to make a cross. Once you have learned the cross, you can extend it to make necklaces, earrings, or pendants. This cross mainly uses square corn knots. Only this kind of knot completes the weaving of the cross.

Okay, no more nonsense, let’s go to the tutorial,

In fact, I have already posted a video tutorial. If you don’t understand, you can watch my previous video tutorial. Cross Video Tutorial

1. Take two threads, place them in a cross shape, and braid a square corn knot. Here is the picture I took after making the second corn knot. If you don’t know how, look at my previous Square Corn Knot Tutorial Square Corn Knot Video Tutorial

2. I made six rows of corn knots here. You can decide how many corn knots you want to make. If you want to make them bigger, just make more corn knots, but it also depends on the thickness of the thread< /p>

12. In order to let everyone see more clearly, this step took n pictures and found n positions to shoot, so that everyone can see how to do it at a glance, and the result I didn't take this picture clearly. This step is really hard to describe. It means that the four wires must go around the next wire clockwise and pass through the hole next door. If you look at the picture carefully, you can still understand it. It’s the first thread that goes through the hole in the middle. I really can’t understand it, so just watch my video tutorial Cross Video Tutorial
