Fold 2 cords in half and secure them to
your board.
Tie a Square Knot with 2 working cords
(brown) around 2 fillers (blue).
Move down 2 inches, and tie another SK.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Slide the second knot up, so it rests
just below the first one. The loops on
either side are the picots.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Tie several more SK with space between
each knot.

Larks Head Design
|
| |
| |
 |
| |
| |
Start by attaching the working cord to the
fillers with a Square Knot. Place the first
Larks Head knot 2 inches below the SK, tying it
as follows:
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Using the right working cord (brown),
pass it over and under
the fillers. Make sure it passes over
the working cord as you bring
it down.
Bring the end under - over
the fillers and under the
working cord to make the second half.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Slide the knot up so it rests next to
the Square knot. This forms the picot on
the right side.
If you want the picots on the right
side only, use the same end
to make the rest of the knots in the
sennit.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
For an alternating pattern, switch to
the left working cord and move down 2
inches.
Tie the next vertical Larks Head knot,
and slide it up next to the first.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
The loops are not directly
across from each other, which makes this
variation unique. |

Spiral Stitch Design
|
| |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Fold one cord in half, and secure it.
This will give you 2 fillers (blue).
Take the second cord and tie a Square
Knot onto the fillers. The two ends are
the working cords (brown).
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Move down 2 inches, and tie the first
half of a Square Knot (Half
Knot).
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Tie the first half of
a SK again, just below the first one.
It's important that you always
tie at least 2 Half knots, or the
design will be too loose.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Slide the two knots up to rest below
the Square knot, forming the picots.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
To continue, leave another space and
tie 2 more Half Knots.
The loops and knots will spiral, but
you may need to help them along by
deliberately twisting them into shape.

Vintage Design -- One Side
|
| |
| |
 |
| |
| |
Picot Designs were very popular in the past,
particularly in the early 1900's. But they were
usually made on one side only, and featured
Square Knots.
The difference with this picot design is that
you don't put space between the knots.
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Fold one cord in half, and secure it.
This will give you 2 fillers (blue).
Take the second cord and tie a Square
Knot onto the fillers. The two ends are
the working cords (brown).
Pull the left working cord to the side
and secure it.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Tie a Square knot just below the first,
making sure the portion you pulled to
the side remains in place.
This gives you a picot on the left side
only.
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Repeat the process several
more times, to form the rest of the
sennit. |

Vintage Design -- Front
|
| |
| |
 |
| |
| |
Picot Designs like this one are rarely used
anymore. I found this technique in a book
written in 1899, so it's definitely vintage.
The reason it's so unique is that the loops
come out from the front of the
sennit. Also, the loops are made by the fillers,
not the working cords.
Fold one cord in half, and secure it. This will
give you 2 fillers (blue). Take the second cord
and tie a Square Knot onto the fillers. The two
ends are the working cords (brown).
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Pull the fillers
forward and bend them into loops. Tie a
Square Knot with the working cords, to
secure them.
When you tighten the SK, make sure it
rests next to the first one (no space
between them).
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
 |
|
Repeat the process a few
more times. |
