\"Bookbinding<\/a><\/p>\n

A couple weeks ago I was bitten by the friendship bracelet bug (maybe it’s because it is summer time, and I remember making friendship bracelets at summer camp) – anyway, I was knotting away on a chevron bracelet<\/a> when my husband came by and said “ooh, friendship bracelets – I used to be pretty good at making those” and I said “oh yeah? well why don’t you make me one?” and he said “mmm…I think I’m kinda past friendship bracelets” and I said “ok, how about a MARRIAGE bracelet lol” and he said “yeah maybe”<\/p>\n

well, 3 hours later, he comes back with my bookbinder’s awl<\/a> and he’s added a GORGEOUS turk’s head knot<\/a> around it – 4 strand braid, and it appears to have no beginning or end. What a cool surprise!<\/p>\n

\"Turk's<\/a><\/p>\n

you can turn the awl around and never find the beginning or end of the knot…<\/p>\n
