Connect your cord to your keyring with a Lark's Head knot.

2. Begin weaving the beads onto the cord following the pattern at the top of the page. You can click on the image for a larger, better resolution photo.

3. After finishing the pattern tie a double knot in the cords at the bottom and apply tacky glue to secure.
