Follow the Video Tutorial for all the steps! Here's a quick summary. Cut your length of nylon thread - 110 inches. Fold your thread in half and use a balloon knot to tie a knot around 1.5 inches above the halfway fold line. This will leave a small length at the end for the tassel.
Add the guru bead and then tie a knot on the other side of the guru bead to hold it into place. Place a bead on one side of the guru bead and add a knot afterward to hold the bead into place. Repeat that 54 times on each side! That will be 108 beads total.
Once all your beads are in place, the tassel comes next! Wrap embroidery thread around a small piece a cardboard at least 10 - 20 times. How many times will determine how thick your tassel is. Now cut the embroidery thread on one side and wrap the whole thing with a bit of extra thread.
We added a dab of glue just to be sure this tassel is nice and strong!

Knots are exactly like I learned in mala workshop.
Love this, awesome tutorial!!! 😍
Hi. Do you find the glue holds the two sides of beads together well? I’ve made a couple of malas and tied them at the end the same way but a bit of a pull and they come apart
I can't wait to make my first hand knotted mala necklace. Can I ask what thickness thread do you use.
Thank you for making this so easy to follow.
This was such a helpful tutorial, thank you so much! I am wondering if you have one or a recommendation on how to put on an already made tassel. I have a ton and would love to know how to attach them....thank you!
The tassel in this video is actually a separate piece! Here is where you can see the tassel in greater detail.czcams.com/video/FlEOHRNFDGY/video.html
The trick for a necklace: attach the tassel with a thin, small, tightly knotted thread to the bead above it. For earrings: metal jump rings work well.
It is best to use the same material to attach the tassel as you are using to complete the piece. Metal jump ring with metal earring posts. Thread with threaded mala necklace.
Do you have a tutorial for the darker bracelet you're wearing in this video?
It's a pretty necklace,but the title is misleading. A traditional mala is not made with tools or glue. And if proper technique is utilized, you can make/attach the tassel simply by knotting. Once again, it is a lovely piece of jewelry. Nice colors.
I can’t make them the way the video depicts. The traditional way is easier for me. And so soothing.
I've recently made my first Mala wrap, using hemp thread, following this tutorial. Thank you for this video!
I was pretty proud of how tight most of the knots were against the beads. But I have a couple questions.
I've only been wearing it on my wrist for two days and I've noticed that every bead now has some wiggle room between knots. Is this only an issue with hemp? Were my knots possibly not tight enough?
That's amazing!! Well done and thanks for letting me know. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
it says to use embroidery thread , but does anyone know what sort , there is so much thread out there i get confused , thank you
Really pretty mala, love your choice of colors 💕
What size beads did you use and what is the cord length? Tfs!
We used 6mm beads and the cord is 110 inches to start.
Pop Shop America Thanks!
Please show some more on knotting. It is easy for you but not for a beginner thanks
Kamal Monga we have this bracelet version: czcams.com/video/hkZwIlO-L1w/video.html
I'll post some stills + explanation on our blog shortly!!
What Nylon cord have you used please?
im trying to use chinese knotting thread ..will that work? If so what would be the mm size? Thank you..great video!!
Hi Laura! Great question. You can use Chinese Knotting Thread in .4 mm size - anything bigger will be too big!
Love your nail polish here do you know the color/brand??
Thank you so much! I wish I knew, but it was so long ago ✨
The tutorial for making a japa mala is ok, but the usage is unfortunately wrong... the index finger is not used
Great tutorial! What is the brand of nylon thread that you used? Where can I purchase it online?
I'm so sorry to give a Hobby Lobby link but I just don't see the correct size on many platforms! The size is important - we used Size 4: www.hobbylobby.com/Yarn-Needle-Art/Crochet/Crochet-Thread/302-White-Artiste-Nylon-Thread/p/35073
@@PopshopamericaForever I fully understand.
What is the thread thickness, may I ask?
Great question. It's called "Size 4" If you could find a number higher than 4 that will work too. Don't use 2 - it's too thick!
Pop Shop America Thank you! ❤
Hi KumZie88!! Nylon Thread (We used Size 4) and you can find the rest of the supplies in the description. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Like a mosque rosary 😂
🙏Namaste🙏
How i know what color to use, is any rule or meaning to use a type of color or color's in particular??
Please can you answer my qyestion if you have a chance??
Because i pick color Blue for a dream of two color's mix i been have, and maybe that have a meaning, but i can be wrong or don't go with me in any particular way??
I been attract by color blue in particular, but maybe i can add other colors, like turquoise, ground or soil color, pink, white, amethyst, wood and gold...
🙏🙏🙏
Yes, you could pick based on color - but I would consider the gemstone's meaning. For example I used turquoise which represents wisdom, protection, and tranquility. I like to think about these properties while I'm creating the mala.
