Making a Hemp Bracelet  Step 3: Tying the Square Knot  Hemp
bracelets are made from one main type of knot (which is really
two simple knots) called a square knot. It is composed of a Left
Square Knot (LSK) and a Right Square Knot (RSK) Tying them is
fairly simple, but it takes practice and thinking at first,
until it becomes almost second-nature.  The LOPOPILTE system!!
Leader-Over Partner-Over Partner-In-Loop Tie-End  Step 1: Follow
a lead Pick one of the long strings on the outside to be your
leading string. Don't forget which string you picked or else
you'll get very confused!! One way of remembering is to tie a
knot or attach a bead at the end of it - that way, you can find
your leading string quickly and easily. If the short strings
aren't on the inside and the long ones on the outside, now would
be an ideal time to move them so they are.  Step 2 : Leader over
