Slide a large hole bead (however many you'd like) onto a piece of cord and make a loop with the left side of the cord passing over the right side.
Step 2:
Using the picture as a guide, make a loop with the left side of the cord. The loop will go over the right side of the cord.
Step 3:
Using the picture as a guide, Take the right side piece of cord, pass it over the tail of the loop you made in step two, and under, up & through the loop you made in step one.
Step 4:
Using the picture as a guide, take the same piece of cord you were working with in step three. Pass is over, under, up & through the loop from step two.
Step 5:
You can either trim the ends of the cord,secure the ends together with wire, make a loop with the tails of the wire, and slide the hoop on an ear wire, or after you trim the ends you can place them in a fold over cord end and clamp down with pliers to secure.

    Love the Josephine macrame’ knots! They’re a challenge but once you get the hang of it its worth it! Once in awhile I’ve had to drag out my macrame’ book :)
    Beautiful work Elaina! I’ll try this, thanks

    I haven’t used the Josephine knot in a long time;and done this way it definitly does look like a celtic knot, which just gave me a necklace idea. Also, this knot looks really cool in two colors.
