TOOLS
First you need to eight to nine lengths of Paracord. Just use the iPod cable as the measuring tape
After you get your eight to nine lengths of parachord fold it in half, and grab the fold. Also remember to burn/fuse the ends of the Paracord
Place iPhone chord in the fold
The main trick to the rest of this is knowing how to tie a Solomon's Bar (also called cobra) knot. It's easy. Take the right side parachord and go over the iPod chord and under the left parachord.
Here is a picture. Again over and then under
Then take the left side and go over iPhone cord and under or through the parachord. Make sure it is through the loop
See under iPod cord through loop and pull the chord through. Just remember to start over under, under over. Then from here in it's under over, over under.
Now you have it started.
Always make sure you start the under over over under process on the side that need the new "loop". Like where my finger is pointing.
Again... Under over.
Over under and through. Make sure you pull tight! Also using your phone as an anchor helps.
Then you go under over, over under on the next side.
And there you go. When you get to the end make sure you cut off the extra length and just fuse the ends so it won't unravel. That's it!!'
