>> Hi,
>> This strap was one I used when teaching a macrame class on how to make a purse. The strap happened to be 30 inches long.
>> 
>> 
>> For the strap, cut 4 cords, each 9 yards long
>> The Strap
>> Step 1:  Secure the center of the four 9-yard strap cords to your board, arranged side-by-side.
>> 
>> Step 2: Mentally number the cords 1 - 4. 
>> Tie the Alternating Half Hitches using cords 1 and 4, attaching them to cords 2 and 3, which hold the knots.
>> Start the knots at the center, and work towards one end. Tie enough Half Hitches to make a 15-inch design.
>> Finish with a Square Knot when the first half of the strap is the size you need. Turn the strap around, and re-secure it to your board.  Tie the second half the same way, stopping at 15 inches.  Tie a Square Knot to complete the sennit.
