How to Tie a Padlock style decorative Knot

In this Arts & Crafts video tutorial you will learn how to tie a Padlock style decorative knot. Padlock knot is a clever way to achieve the look and function of a padlock without having to bother about the key. Take a piece of rope, bend it in the center and make two loops on either side of the rope. Ensure the working end is over the rope in the left side loop and under the rope in the right side loop. Now overlap both the loops so that the left side loop is over the other loop. Now pass the right working end over and around the rope and the loop and the left end under and around. Continue doing this alternately till both the working ends meet. The knot is now ready. Trim the ends to give it a neat look.
