Paracord

Tutorial

Knot the gorgeous pattern “Stairways” using this photo tutorial. This 5 colour knot is a design by Silke Engels.

When you knot the stairways with paracord 550, the knotwork is about 4.8 cm wide and 1.4 cm thick.

Check out this paracord knot with 5 colours in the MatchMaker and choose your favourite colour combinations there and calculate how much rope you need for your project.

For the set-up we use the Kosmetik 2.1. Colours 2, 3 and 4 go through all three set-up knots, colour 5 only goes through the middle set-up knot. Below you can see how the colours are added.

Colour 1: Fresh Mint, colour 2: Neon Turquoise, colour 3: Electroshock, colour 4: Aquamarine Blue and colour 5: Indigo.

After the set-up is made and the colours have been added, it is handy to check that the length of the set-up is still correct. Make sure the left and right strand of each colour are the same length. If this is correct, you can start on the knot.

Step 11: Make sure you always cross the strands of colour 5 in the same direction. So either always right over left or always left over right.

Step 13: From now on, keep repeating the same steps.

This knot is designed by Silke Engels. We would like to thank her for allowing us to use this knot.
