I combined megalace (which is twice the width of a regular, flat scoubidou string) and made a 1 by 1 circle stitch with a normal flat scoubidou string.
I then cut the megalace out and continued into 1 by 1 circle stitch.
I then took a piece of megalace, cut and made it into a ribbon that i then wrapped a piece of regular flat string around.
This is a 1 by 1 box stitch that I then made into Chinese staircases that I alternated bases fit. So instead of 1 string wrapped around another, I alternated wrapping a string around another and did the same with the opposite string.
A 3 by 1 alternating triangle and corkscrew stitches. I then branched them off into an alternating corkscrew shape with 6 strings going down two each. I took two of the strings and tied them into a circle that I attached to the top of the lanyard. I integrated the remaining stitches into a corkscrew.
A 2 by 1 alternating nautilus and box stitch going into a 3 by 1 corkscrew stitch, then a cross stitch, the another corkscrew stitch. Finally, alternating box and circle stitches. [/url]
A 3 by 1 box stitches into a 4 by 1 box stitches, with a string cut out and then 2 by 1 box stitches into a 2 by 1 corkscrew. I them made a circle with alternating Chinese staircases, then attached to the top.
