Step 10: Bring the left side of the string back under the
string that is taped down
Step 11: Then bring the string over the right string.
Step 12: Bring the right string over the middle string and under the top part of the left string... (look at picture)

To make the adjustable sliding knot take a short piece of hemp (about 5 inches). Create the exact same knots you were using creating the bracelet. Once you believe you adjustable end is wide enough knot the ends so they string doesn't go through and ravel. Also tie knots at the end of the open strings so when adjusting the size it doesn't come undone.
