The heart is like a double mesh with thousands of knots in it. What I love most is the hand-knitted Chinese knots. Today we will knit a very versatile Chinese knot pipa knot knot.
We take a 40cm red rope, fold it in half leaving about 10cm at one end, and divide it into two ropes on the left and right
We use the rope on the right to wrap it counterclockwise from the top to the back of the red rope. At this time, a circle is also formed below
We put the rope against the rope in the lower circle and then wind it counterclockwise to the back, the same method as in the picture above
We always have to pinch the center point of the middle winding
Now is the 4th lap
When we do it the fifth time, we need to thread the rope into the hole in the center www.diyju.com
This is what it looks like from the back
We must pinch the pipa knot and press it flat, cut the rope, burn it and stick it firmly
We cut the short rope at the beginning close to the bottom of the pipa knot, burned it, and glued it firmly
Look, it’s really beautiful
Take another rope and knit it according to the above method, except that you must first knit a button knot at the beginning. A beautiful pipa knot is ready. Isn’t it very classic and elegant?
Pipa knot is a traditional Chinese hand-woven handicraft and a type of Chinese knot. The pipa knot is based on the button knot and then modified. Its shape is similar to the ancient musical instrument pipa, so it is named after it. The sound of the pipa is the same as the auspicious fruit "loquat".
