24 cords:

  • 150cm cord (holding cord)
  • 75cm x 11 cords
  • 60cm x 6 cords
  • 50cm x 9 cords
  • 45cm x 4 cords
  • 40cm x 5 cords

Instructions:

  1. First, make a loop near the end of a 150cm cord.
  2. Then, fold one of the 75cm cords in half and place under the loop of the 150cm cord, then make a cow hitch knot by bringing the ends to the hole we just created. Repeat this step 3 more times.
  3. Next, pull the end of the 150cm cord to tighten the loop.
  4. Use a rubber band to mark the first string you’re going to wave to keep a track of each round.
  5. Then, bring your holding cord to the right of the first string, make a number four with the first string over the holding cord and pull the end through the loop created. Repeat this one more time to create a double half hitch knot.
  6. Repeat the same steps for the next string and so forth until you finish the first round.
  7. Continue, repeating these steps until you have achieved 11 rounds.

Important Notes:
  • When starting new rounds, you may notice some gaps between the last string and the first string. To fix this, you can add more cords to fill in the space.
  • The cord lengths don’t have to be precise, so if you are 1 inch short it’s totally fine.
