I have to make a comment here because yours was the best video on this. I got cranky watching others, not being able to understand what I'm doing wrong, and then found this one and thank you for putting me out of my misery haha! You're great x

Great tuition! This is the only video that made sense. Good camera operation and commentary made it a success.

Ok I know every comment is saying this is the first tutorial that worked for them but I have to say the same! This was the simplest and easiest tutorial and you made sure not to only explain while talking but also zoomed on the knot, but were careful not to have your hands hide the work. Thank you so much, I finally fixed my broken bracelet that was a gift!!

Greatly appreciate the left handed version, for even though I'm right hand dominate, I was able to successfully follow the left handed directions. Kept getting lost in all other tutorials with right hand dominance!

After watching a complete fail by someone else offering a tutorial on this knot, I found this video to be refreshing and informative.  Thank you for sharing!

I watched several other videos about making slipknots, but yours is the only one showing clearly how to begin the knot. So thanks to you I managed it at last! 🤗

clearest explained both verbally and visually...I have watched yet

[sarellano]

Your technique was the easiest and most effective one I found. I tried over 10 times and did it on the first go with this video

Thank you for doing the left handed version. Greatly appreciated in this right handed world.👍😊

[dogtorzaius]

👏The most well described method of tying knot, ever! Thank you for sharing.

I want to say what others have said... this is the BEST tutorial for these knots I have found. Was nearly going to give up on the knots as I couldn't get them to look nice so thank. you so very much for this!

[julieweegens]

I've watched a lot of sliding knot tutorials trying to perfect my knots, and yours is the best I've seen.  Thank you!

Thank you !!! Thank you!!! I have no experience with making knots. You made this so easy to understand. I was able to fix a necklace that I purchased in Costa Rica. I appreciate you sharing and teaching this technique. I just hope it doesn't fall off my neck.

Ahh! Finally! I've watched at least 3 other vids on the sliding knot and yours was the only one I was successful with, thank you!

[charlesk]

The best sliding knot video I've seen so far, and I've watched many. Your way is so easy to do and the knots come out perfectly clean. Thank you very much for this tutorial.

[jolarney]

Absolutly loved your video, it is better than the one i had been using. I find your knots look 10 times cleaner.

[ladyjosephine]

Thank you sooo very much for flipping the video for us lefties. Although I'm used to reversing instructions in my head it's much easier to be able to see a left handed version

[SynchroDiaries]

Great video. There are a lot of others out there but yours is the most professional and easiest to understand.

[jojofox]

By far the best tutorial! Thank you for a clear, precise and easy to follow tutorial. The color with black background, hands and cords not in the way of your visual. I was able to do it on the 1st try qith ny flemsy cord i wanted to use. I have this in my saves to refer back to as beeded

[bethjohnson]

Thanks! I concur the other comments. I watched several videos and drawings and just couldnt master this simple knot. Your explanation using dominant and non-dominant hand seemed to be what worked in my brain. That seems to be why I couldnt get this down, I was using the wrong hand....
