Did you use a different string over the pendant? Its seems thicker than the rest of the necklace.

I know how to do most of the knots you've used here, but that one directly over the pendant - how'd you do that? And the four little knots directly framing it, the ones that look like little four leaf clovers?

Very cool. :nod:

This is made of only two types of knots-- square knots and Josephine knots (also called a double-coin knot.) Plus the little bit of braiding. Above the pendant, I've simply made two Josephine knots back-to-back. There are instructions for the double-coin or Josephine knot at [link]. Hooray for knots! :D

Yar, I know how to do a Josephine knot, yes. :nod:

Interesting what you can do with just two simple knots. Very well done.

What was the pendant made from? Is it metal? Do you know what the characters say?

Some kind of metal--the pendant is bought, I didn't make it. I don't know anything about metals, though I'd love to learn that stuff one day...I don't know what it says, either :) Wouldn't that be funny if it said something wierd, and I'd have no idea? i just like the shapes of Chinese characters...
