[ENG] I've been seeing this type of necklaces during the summer but I never bought one because I thought it shouldn't be that difficult to make, and I was right, although it takes quite a lot of time to make it. I did some research on the internet and I found a video explaining how to do it here and a post here.
You will need:
- 5 metres of rope
- Metal clasps for necklaces
- Superglue
- Pins
- Printed A4 pattern
- Porexpan
Step 1. Cut two strips of 2,5 meters; fix the pattern to the porexpan using some cellotape.
Step 2. The two lines from the patterns should be done separately. Pick one and put your cord there (pay attention on how the cord goes (over or under) following the pattern and holding it with pins.
Step 3. One you finish one cord (check it is ok), you may start with the other one. Take you time....
Step 4. Remove all pins.
Step 5. Strech the cord from its ends and the centre until strengthened enough.
Step 6. Cut the cord to the size you need and glue the metal clasps at the ends.
Necessitareu:
- 5 metres de corda
- Tanques metàl·liques
- Superglue
- Agulles
- patró en A4
- Porexpan
Pas 1. Talla dues tires de 2,5 metres; fixa el patró al damunt del porexpan amb cel·lo.
Pas 2. Les dues línees del patró s'han de fer per etapes. Escull-ne una i comença a resseguir la silueta amb la corda (en compte de veure si la corda va per sobre o per sota) i fixa-ho amb agulles.
Pas 3. Quan acabis amb la primera corda, segueix amb la segona. No vulguis córrer...
Pas 4. Treu les agulles.
Pas 5. Estira les cordes per les puntes fins que estigui prou apretat.
