Needle hitching .

Hardly Bushcraft, but its one way to tart up everyday items.
Heres a pic of enhanced everyday containers that hold my knotting tools and needles.

( I bet I,ve forgotten how to post pics)

Hey thats really well done!

I still have to learn how to knit before I attempt anything like that!

Must have taken hours - good work!

That sort of knot work impresses the hell out of me. I love seeing the old brass bells in military bars with the fantastic knot work on the clanger, it's a bit sad I suppose but it interests me.

I went through a phase of putting turks head knots on everything! I love the simplicity of them and how good they look, but also they help make an item a bit more grippy. Saying that, not all of them are simple!!!

OK now we want the tutorial!
Great stuff, beautifully done!

seriously lovely work. perhaps to make it more 'bushcrafty' you could do it with natural cordage??

Wotcher WW, yes I tried this on large cider flagons, in some sort of raffia , the type used for those chairseats.........a bit of a let down, really; I found that particular stuff was just too inconsistent and difficult to achieve a good finish.

But, "natural cordage"?????
As in, "heres one I did earlier?".......no way, it would take me forever to make enough
