that would cover one or more of my questions
My first question is where can I get the direction to make this collar
I bought it at a dog show and I just know I can make them....and for a lot less
then what was asked for it(90 bucks....)
I have 5 Great danes and I want one for each...plus friends Danes......
So much cheaper if I can make them
I also need a cheap place to buy the buckles,and rings.......
I found some online but dont know if its a good quality item
I don't want super cheap quality....great danes are a little rough on equiptment
I did go to ebay and bid on a macrame book that the picture on the
cover appears to be very close to what I want to make
But I havent recieved the book yet,and was wondering if anyone
else had made one or knew how to
Second question is about round braiding
I have bought at shows kangaroo leather slip leads...another big ticket item.They work great in the show ring....but I would like to make my own because some I want short,some longer and its rare I can find the colors,and length I want,and if 2 or three dogs end up in the ring at the same time I'm switching and panicking.
I figure I'd make some practice ones out of parachute cord,which also works well,but I can only find directions for whip making,or 6 or 12 strand braiding...I need it thin so 6 would be the max...I'm wondering if there is 4 strand braiding technique
