Flattracker Report post Posted August 21, 2015 There is probably a proper term for this which I don't know which is why I can't find the answer hah! I need to make a wallet lanyard but not in a braid... it'll be out of 8mm leather cord with a wrap around the hardware at each end. So the fold over needs to be securely tied off at each end with a neat thick/flat thread or lace/rawhide? I've seen examples where you can't really see where the tie off starts & finishes, it looks real tidy and is something I'm aiming for but no idea where to start. Apologies if there's a thread on the forum for this already, I had a search but couldn't find anything. Any help much appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penguineer Report post Posted August 22, 2015 Whipping? Where you'd just fold your cord back and do a neat thread wraparound? Doesn't sound like you're referring to a Turks head or a knot really..... Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flattracker Report post Posted August 22, 2015 Ahhh, thanks Penguineer. That's exactly it, thread wrap around. I'll search on whipping now. Big thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Bill46 Report post Posted August 22, 2015 Also look for Double loop lacing ! It is done with alot of billfolds, and can be a non detectable ending if properly done Good Luck on all your quests. ---------- Wild Bill46. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
