Foundations

Recommended Posts

I'm sure it's been gone over before, but just wondering if anyone uses just tape for button foundations and how well they stay put? Also would like to know what a good knot would be at the end of a bosalita, besides the ring knot with the ends run back thru. Any advice or opinions or photos would be great, thanks.

I've used tape, and it stays just fine. Have also used a collar made of scrap leather... you can make these any size etc. and you can smooth the ends nice. Usually, when I want the knot to slide, I put it on a leather collar, smooth or skin side down against the work, flesh side against the braiding. You can also just glue them down if they are supposed to stay still.
