I received the most beautiful prayer necklace about a year ago during God's Grace in me being reborn. It was very inexpensive but a most cherished item to help me. I believe it was God sent for me to find and receive it. When it showed up there was something very special about that entire moment, the cross and rope formed a heart that warmed my heart as I first laid eyes on it. Thank you for the skill care and diligence in creating them. I had no idea how impacting it would. E on .e and have used it daily since. Im not even sure it was from you, but that does not matter. Thank you for aharing, God is good, much love to all!!❤❤
What an intricate knot. I’ve been making knotted rosaries for some time and I love my chotki. I am envisioning my hand wrapped in an crazy knot just watching this!! 😂 I will need to watch a few more times before I try. Your work is beautiful, I can see how much love and care you put into each knot. May God bless you for your good works! 🙏🏼✝️🤎
This is the third way of tying the Chotki knot I learned here on CZcams and now my favorite. May God reward you abundantly for taking time to make this video and all your other videos! 🤗 The tips you included are also very useful. Now my knots kinda stay closer together even with a satin rope that is so slippery. May you have a blessed Lent and Easter, all good things and joys!
Like some others I will need to watch this a few more times before I get it, but this is the best teaching video on it I've seen so far, well done!. It reminds me of cats cradle we played as kids, but that's another story!
After years of trying and watching a VHS video in the older, with this video I actually tied a correct not. Thank you. Is it possible to make a video to show the alternating colors that the Romanian's do? Say like, Red and Black alternativing?
Я в первые тоже сколько искала, всё быстро делают и ничего не понятно , не получается а это видео самое хорошее что я смотрела, я ещё не пробовала а только смотрела но всё понятно и буду смотреть видео и пробовать уже завтра я уверенна у меня получится спасибо большое
For paracord or cord enthusiasts, this is the diamond or lanyard knot, just very close together. However, the way this is tied has meaning through both the path the cord takes and the actual function of the end product. Either way will result in a prayer cord. You can find the same thing with buddhism. Prayer cords are for just that, prayer.
Thank you for this demonstration. Can you please elaborate more on how/where exactly you pull on the sides to bring a knot up? That's where I have difficulty and can't complete my second knot. Thank you!
Did you figure it out? I had beginners luck, but i try again and kept messing up. The annoying thing is that i was doing it properly, but sometimes the strings were twisted in a way that made me think it was tangled. Now I learned i just have to slide the string and tug a bit harder then it takes the right shape and can be tightened up. So much time i wasted undoing knots that were actually fine
How is this knot structurally different from the knife lanyard knot, also called a diamond knot? I've tied both and cannot find a difference structurally in the end result.
It may be structurally the same, I don't know that, but the way these knots are different is the two loops that are pulled through allow them to be tightened right up against each other very tightly

@@orthodoxprayerropes6134 I'll re-tie a diamond knot shortly and see if it also has that feature. I know the process you share here is traditional and the 7 crossings hold meaning. As a knotter, I am also curious in the structure and function of the knot itself independant of the project. Hope that makes sense.
This is interesting to know. I love how the knot looks and actually wanted to make a 5 decade Catholic knotted rosary using this method. I’m knot-challenged (find it really had to make fancy knots) but I’m hoping to learn how to make this one.
Try the lanyard knot. Same thing happens, with the 2 cords coming out the bottom to butt up against one another. I've made my daughter several knots in a row for a teether.
Is it fine to make a prayer rope out of beads(all beads) ? like the rosary coz i don't have strings. I'm Catholic and i'm interested in trying the Orthodox way of using prayer ropes. May God bless you all.
Take a break, have some prayer, ask God to guide your hands and help you, try again tomorrow. If it still doesn't work send me a video of you tying a knot I'll try to tell you what went wrong
Ill keep on trying.. ill be doing this the whole day tomorrow, i can show you.. cause its going automatic but always at the end it goes wrong so im trying hundreds of other ways that i might be getting wrong
@@potatosalad9063 it's better to take a break... So you can start again with fresh eyes. Because repeating whatever you are doing now will not change anything and you will just get frustrated
I know this is a super late reply, but I'm making one with standard Paracord rn and it works... but the thickness of the cord and its tendency to twist makes the knots kinda "lumpy" and not very pretty. Also it seems to be just generally more difficult than with a thinner cord
When I pull on the loops to bring the knot up, once the knot is flush with the previous knot I hold down tightly with my thumb and pointer finger near the bottom of the knot on the loop string so the knot doesn't slid down and continue doing so as I pull the loop through the knot to finish it and do the same for the other loop.
Скажите пожалуйста, сколько сантиментров корда нужно брать для маленькой руки 18 см? И сколько Ваш корд по ширине 1мм или 2 мм? Спасибо огромное за видео.
No wonder the devil couldn't untie it :s
Exactly 😂
He is probably on still on CZcams trying to figure it out haha.
I was like 'that can't be one knot. That's gotta be the cross.." it was one knot
Thank goodness it looks like you only really have to do it once or twice, then you just repeat an easier motion for the whole rope.
Wow. I can see the truth in that story of the desert fathers where the Angel showed him how to tie a knot that the demons could not unravel.
You’re a great teacher and I realized I won’t even attempt this. Looks too complex. But wow. I had no idea how hard it was.

This is the clearest explanation. Thank you and God Bless you for this tutorial
Just gained even more respect for the prayer cord knots
Huge respect to these who do this, this is some hard mind destroyer 🤣 so hard to make!
I wish I could show you the hot mess that was my first knot after following along. It truly was a travesty and it had me cracking up.
😆😹
totally going to try this with cross stitch floss to see how it turns out. Loved the tutorial. ευχαριστώ πολύ!
Ευχαριστώ πολύ για το καλύτερο βίντεο, να είστε καλά ❤
Great Channel!
I just finshed my first Komboskini from scratch just by learning from your videos. Thank you very much!!

Amazing to watch how you teach to do this. Thank you for this video.
Would need the patience of a saint to tie that! :)

@@Dragonslayer_S it's been 2 years... Did you succeed?
He is only on his third knot 😂
Yes, since than I have a beautyfull prayer rope. I even made also a cross with special knots by myself. Thank you!
Thank you! This was super helpful in making myself a prayer rope ring. 💕
Thank you for this. It was very helpful
Wonderful! Congratulations! I would place an order for a bracelet.
THANK YOU!!! God bless!
Gorgeous video but I am still clueless :)
I don’t blame you, wow that looks confusing..😳😲😹
Thank you very much
This seems hard but I will attempt it nevertheless pray for me sister.
Really good vid on the 3 finger merhod but the 5 finger method is a lot easier!!!!
I'm not familiar with this method! Do you have any links to learn it?

I would like to make a bracelet with these knots...how do I join the beginning and the end of the bracelet?
once you made 33 knots, how do you connect the ends (without a cross)?
Grazie!!!❤

i have a question. when you are finished with making the knots how do you tie the two ends
I would like to hear your definition of "very easy"
For the least to say it was tricky but I managed
Спасибо большое за видео!
thank you god bless
I did it, yes!!!!!!
Thank you.

how do you finish the prayer rope?
Wooooow that’s amazing 👍👍👍 good job
i don't know how i did it but i succeeded
nvm i failed with the second knot
Aveți cumva un film în care exemplificați cu șnururi de culori diferite?
Ar fi mai ușor pentru noi, cei care vrem sa învățăm. Mulțumesc.

Are your "arm lengths" both arms spread wide, or did you mean just the one arm measurement? I wasn't sure.
Thank you
@Orthodox Prayer Ropes i have a orthodox prayer rope rosary made by the prisoner im glad it so beautiful i buy it made out from chotki :)
Thank you so much, this is awesome! Do you have a video for a cross made of these knots as well?
Due to not being an octopus I am unable to make it past knot 2.
should i get it blessed?
This looks hard.
Thank you so much‼️
I watched my grandmother years ago make these 300 knot rosary and fast, I want to know who on earth came up with this form of a knot
The Orthodox church
I have 4 of them😂

Hello! Where do you buy the rope to make the prayer rope? God bless you
Looks like a diamond knot
So 3 times crossing over/ around the two fingwrs?
What is the name of this knot ?
This is one way of tying what is also called a diamond knot. There are easier ways to tie it but I think this is traditional for tge Kristjans.
Hello can you tell me what faith culture is the prayer beads and what type of prayer goes to it? Thank you I’m hoping it’s Hebrew/Jewish
No, these prayer ropes are Orthodox Christian and for praying the Jesus prayer.
Boa noite como é bom nome desse Nó gostaria de aprender a fazer .. poderia falar comigo fico grata
How do you make the final knot?? To finish it all up..
I have other videos on my channel showing this but you just double up the ends and tie the knot with four strings
Still don't know how. Can you make a vid on it???
@@michaelkarlgut334 what do you mean by final knot? You can just cut it when you're done. czcams.com/video/iz3vqBGLnFE/video.html
@@orthodoxprayerropes6134 Thank you!!!
'very easy'
Dose the way you twist the rope as knots it is mean something in Christian prays ?
The knots consist of 7 crosses which is symbolic. The knots themselves are used to pray the Jesus prayer most commonly
How come your english is so good 🤔
❤❤❤
Спасибо! Супер
Can this knot tying procedure be used to make a wool bracelet or rope?
Yes
What are the size of the beads hole size?
Hi! Is that 2 arm lengths of rattail cord for a 33-knot prayer rope before or after you double back to tie the first knot?
What beads do you use?
Thank you so much 😊

Ini sangat rumit
I made a couple knots that look right but I'm kind of lost on the tightening.
Is it fine to make a prayer rope out of beads(all beads) ? like the rosary coz i don't have strings. I'm Catholic and i'm interested in trying the Orthodox way of using prayer ropes. May God bless you all.
Some people make them out of beads too!
tried over 90 times for about 7 hours and didn't work, theres something missing..at the end at the moment for pulling, it often goes wrong.
Take a break, have some prayer, ask God to guide your hands and help you, try again tomorrow. If it still doesn't work send me a video of you tying a knot I'll try to tell you what went wrong

thank you for the video. I would like to know how long the rope I should use for about 224 beads with a cross?
And can you also use paracord
I have personally never used it, but if it's about 2mm thick it should be fine!

How do you finish the prayer rope with out a cross?
Do you have a link to a picture of what you mean?
How do you keep the knots tight to each other? Mine always end up with a gap.
When I pull on the loops to bring the knot up, once the knot is flush with the previous knot I hold down tightly with my thumb and pointer finger near the bottom of the knot on the loop string so the knot doesn't slid down and continue doing so as I pull the loop through the knot to finish it and do the same for the other loop.

Great video how long should the rope be to do a 300 knot rope?
24-30 yards depending on the thickness of your cord (the thicker the longer it has to be)
