Experimintation

Right now I am experimenting with 10lb weight thread, which is thinner then the normal hemp thread used for knotting. Normally the weight used would be 20lb. I like the way it looks so far, but it seems i have to be careful how much tension I put on the thread when making knots. It is much easier to see the difference between tighter and looser knots then with the thicker threads.

My first piece, soon up for sale, would you buy it?

Here is the first piece I have made specifically for the purpose of my jewelry business. It's a hemp thread, made with a simple square knot and a bead closure. Tell me what you think. Would you buy it? The price for this is about $4-$5. Would you pay this much? Please leave a comment.
