Each metre-length of piña fibre (from the pineapple leaf) must be hand-knotted to form a continuos strand for the weft on the loom.
Weaving centre in a small fishing village near Puerto Princesa, Palawan.
I’ve searched oodles to try to find the pattern saying what knots to use for different looks, but nothing comes up useful.
I know how to macrame, so I don’t want to buy one, I’d just like to make one. I’d just make up the pattern as I go, but I don’t want it to come out looking crappy :/
Any ideas?

Picture this: You’re at home relaxed and comfortable. Your family is in the next room having fun watching some videos. You stand up with your coffee in your right hand and you slide that door open for some air. The ocean greets you and you can’t wait to get to this great, untapped resort at the Bahamas. You’re wearing your robe as you sail towards it, literally. The home you have is moving and sailing – that’s something really absurd unless your home is onboard The World cruise ship.
How else would you define a clear cord used to suspend something or everything? Actually, the term is as old as shipping, or perhaps older. Nautically, a lanyard is a short rope or wire rove through deadeyes to hold and tauten standing rigging.
Today, people from practically all walks of life are using lanyards today, and oh! So creatively:
1. Promotions: This, probably, is the widest use today after shipping! Be it trade fairs or office, you can see people walking around with multicolor strings around their necks, nametags or ids dangling from them.
Grizz from HammockForums describes techniques for using cord to suspend hammocks : tie-offs using the buntline hitch (3:09), and marlinspike hitch (6:00). While the video describes the garda hitch also, Grizz DOES NOT recommend this any longer.
