I first made one of these last summer for my dog because I wanted a thicker and more durable dog leash. I used maroon and white as the colors and it came out great. The only problem with this type of leash is that the knot used to create the leash takes forever to tie when wanting it longer. But it looked so good that my wife's friend wanted one for herself, just not as long (thank god!). Anyways here's a couple of pictures of the final result.
The knots used were:
- Solomon bar for the handle
- 6X5 Turk's head knot for the junction of the handle to the leash
- The length of the leash is done with a round crown sinnet
- The three different colored knots on the buckle end are all 3X5 Turk's head knots.
