Today I will tell you how to make such a nice belt.

As can be seen from the photo, this belt (or belt) can also act as a tie and bracelet, if you reduce the diameter of the threads. But this workshop is especially about the belt, since it is easier to show the weaving pattern on large threads.

1. So, you need to take a cord with a diameter of 2.5 mm 6 segments of 2 m (then you can solder another 5 m - in total you need 7 m * 6 = 42 m or 3.5 skeins) and hang it on a belt buckle. The buckle should be at least 5 cm on the inside, since the belt will also be 5 cm wide.

2. Cross two middle threads (rep knot)

3.Now on the 2nd thread we hang 1 tatting knot, which consists of 2 actions, which can be seen in the photo

4. Then we hang 3 knots on the 4th thread: you can see in the photo that the 1st knot is done with the 3rd thread, and then the 2nd knot is made with the 2nd thread, and the 3rd with the 1st thread.
The photo shows the 1st and 2nd knot (since it can already be hung at the end when we finish our diagonal knot, consisting of tatting knots).

5. Then 5 tatting knots are hung on the 6th thread:
1st knot - 5th thread; 2nd knot - 4th thread; 3rd knot - 3rd thread.
The photo shows the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th - the last node, respectively.

6. Photo 014 shows that the left side of our diagonal knot is now revealed. In the same way we open its right side. Here is what should happen.

7. So, we see that our 5 threads are hung on the left on the 6th thread. We begin to form our chess grid: on the 2nd thread we form the rep knot with the 1st thread.

8. On the right side - everything is the same, but in a mirror image, therefore I will call the node - tatting. We hang this knot on the 2nd thread with the 1st thread.

9. Cross the 2nd strand with the rep knot in the middle.

10. Thus, the 1st cell of our grid was formed. By the same principle, weave the remaining 8 cells according to this pattern

11. That is, we form a 2 cell (on the left): on the 4th thread we throw the knot with the 3rd thread (red color on the diagram)

12. And on the 2nd thread we throw the 1st (blue color)

13. And connect the threads closer to the middle with a rep knot

14. Here is what a chess grid should end up with:

15. Now we begin to weave the rows of the belt. As you can see, it turned out 6 threads on the left and right. Take the 2nd thread and pull it up. We throw a tatting knot on it with the first thread.

16. Then we bend our 2nd thread down and throw the knot on it with the same 1st thread — but don't tatting it anymore, but rep!

17. Accordingly, we throw a knot on the 4th thread with the 3rd thread

18. Connect the rep knot of the 2nd and 4th threads

18. On the 6th thread we throw the tatting knot with the 5th thread.

19. We complete the formation of the row on the left: on the 2nd thread we throw the 5th thread.

20. On the right we form the same row, but we also throw the 6th thread on the 2nd thread. The ends of the rows at the end of the weaving need to be dripped with Secunda superglue and cut.
