How to make a square knots or reef knots on a card.

Hello Friends, 
Today it is a little bit of boy scout training. How to make a square knot or some call it a reef knot. This knot is perfect with the Come Sail Away suit. I love this knot with the Braided Linen Trim on the Come Sail Away card. 
Before I get started I want to give a big shoot out to LeAnn Skinner for the inspiration. Thank you so much, LeAnn to share with our team. 

I have the video below or you can view it on my YouTube channel

Step by steps 

This is simple but to be honest, the best way to learn it is to watch the video. I will give it a shot to explain in words. 

  • Fold both pieces of the Braided Linen Trim in half. 
  • Hold one in your right hand and one in your left hand. Both of the loop facing each other. 
  • Take the right loop pass in under the left one. 
  • Take the ends of the left trim and pass it under the right loop that you just pass under the left. 
  • Pull and Voila! you have a square knot or some call if a reef knot. 

Well if I got you all to confuse, don’t worry I have a quick video below and I am sure you will get your square knot done while watching the video.
