23 Plait with four cords. Cut four cords 1/3 longer than the desired finished length. Tie the cords together and secure them onto a Macramé Board. Start alternating with the cord located at the far right side and the cord at the far left side. Put the cord you are holding down between the two cords which you have in the opposite hand, place it underneath the inner cord and then back so that it is placed inside, at the side it came from. See step by step photo on pages 23-29. Continue to desired length.
