The explanation of 5L4B is the easiest to understand in you tube. Thank you.

thanks for making this tutorial I think it makes it much easier to follow when doing the turks head

Short and sweet. The 5/4 is a nice knot by itself or as a foundation knot. Thanks.

How do you finish the knot off? Is that it? Does it hold?

[kenton]

It's not complete, it's still wrapped around a mandrel.

how would you make this turk's head longer? say about 12 inches longer? on a mandrel?
