Making myself a belt from 3mm accessory cord. About 10 metres of cord makes a belt.
Funny story: when I was a kid, someone tried to teach me how to tie reef knots. I am a knot geek now (own #ABoK and everything), but I couldn’t get it right for the life of me. I concluded I was hopeless at knots, because every time I followed the instructions to the letter and got a granny knot.
The instructions were, “left over right, round and under. Right over left, round and under”.
8 year old me assigned “right” and “left”
At the start of the exercise and kept track of where they went. Wheat he meant was “Since the right has now become the left, we’re swapping ends”.
But he never said that.
Similarly, the instructions I found for this cobra weave said, “swap ends each time”.
It doesn’t actually mean that. It means keep using the same end, which keeps swapping sides.
Humans can be so imprecise sometimes!
