Help for Knotting a Rope

[Marianne]

Ever get frustrated after you have knotted about 30 inches and have another 50 to go? Fingers fatigue and nerves fray... Well the other night while about 40 inches into an 85 inch pearl and aqua rope a light bulb came on I eased the finished portion into a little (3" X 4") organza bag and cinched it up... even added a neat little bow. How much easier to drop the bag and a manageable length of beads through arthritic fingers than scrambling about to gather it up with each new knot

I'll try to attach a couple of photos to illustrate...... wish me luck!

Looks like my kind of party favor! No really, what a great idea. I'll steal that next time I knot.

Yes, Great luster. Great organization idea!

Are you bringing tools? Please do. I hope everybody does. I'm going to switch threads...over to the party thread.
