Daisy chain

This chain plait (or sinnet, as sailors say) is also referred to as single trumpet or bugle cord,

because of its use as an adornment on the uniforms of marching bands. Children enjoy pulling
the free end to watch a length of it unravel before their eyes.

Beginning at the standing end of 6–8 ft (2–3 m) of cord, make a slip knot (1). Insert a finger and
pull a second bight through the one already formed (2). Repeat the process until all of the cord has

been used up, tucking the working end through the last bight to lock all the preceding ones in place
(3).
