Instructions
Step 1
To weave a choker, you need a special elastic fishing line. It can be purchased at a craft store. Traditionally, the decoration is made of black material, as it looks more like a tattoo, but you can also make it bright, from a fishing line of any color that you like.
Step 2
Measure out the required amount of material. To weave the necklace, cut a piece about 2 m long. Fold the line in half and place it on the book. Attach the edge with a clip.
Step 3
Now you can start weaving directly. Take your time, do everything slowly and carefully. Take the piece of fishing line that is on the left. Throw it over the right end, make a loop and pull the end of the line into it. Tighten gently.
Step 4
Likewise, make a second loop with the line on the right side around the tip on the left. Tighten the loop, trying to make it about the same size as the previous one.
Step 5
While holding the hinges with your left index finger, repeat the previous steps again. Thus, braid to the required length.
Step 6
Remove the stationery clip. Pull the end of the line into the loop you made at the beginning of the work. Cut off excess. Connect the 2 ends of the cord, lightly melt them with a lighter and squeeze firmly. After the melted material has cooled down, a very strong bond is obtained.
Step 7
The choker tattoo is ready. However, it can be made prettier. Such necklaces are very decorated with pendants. They can be purchased at the store or used as pendants from old jewelry. Find the middle of your finished choker. Open the mounting ring on the suspension slightly. Put on the line and press down.
