Step 1

Measure and cut about 48" [121.9 cm] of hemp cord.

Step 2

Arrange two connector rings (one large and one of the small) so the smaller one is inside the larger one and aligned so they are touching in one place, which will be the top of your earring.

Step 3

Now, tie one end of the hemp cord to one side of where the rings are touching in a temporary knot.

Step 4

Wrap the hemp around the rings, holding them together across the top, until the gap between the rings is large enough to start weaving.

Step 5

Weave the cord in and out, over and under, around the two rings.

Step 6

When you reach the temporary knot, un-knot and tie the ends together in the back. Trim the cord ends close to the knot, then add a generous amount of glue to secure.

Step 7

Add a 9mm jump ring through the opening, at the top of your earing.

Step 8

Finally, attach a fishhook earring with a 5mm jump ring.

Step 9

Repeat Steps 1-8 for a second earring.
