- In this short little video you will learn how to tie a rather decorative 4 Strand French Sennit or Braid.
What is the French Sennit used for? It can be used for a number of things, such as part of a decorative neck lanyard, or one of the weave used when making a decorative knotted picture frame, or even on its own as the main part of a decorative knife lanyard.
Four Strand French Sennit Formula: Right Hand Cord, Under, Over, Under to the left. Then repeat this with the next right hand lead.

It's true that these sennits are versatile and good looking. They're quick and easy to tie. Good one, thanks John.
5 months - I'm here 19/5 08:34 I like this going to try this in my hair!
That's that oh wow thing so simple so elegant gotta give it a try no really gotta give it a try great tutorial
I think you got my attention looking for great ideas and people who know how to teach them indeed you have my attention ☺️ it's push the button time
Excellent video. I like this pattern. I'll definitely be using this in future projects.
I typically use the herringbone pattern you get from crossing the middle two strands then passing them over the outside two strands. (Then repeat until end.)
Totally agree with you, it is always good when you stumble upon a variant that not many others are using. I have also started to use black tarred line, for the same reason 😉 😉 😉 Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Just the knot less chat! I Iove it
Got to keep the people happy.

Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
clear and concise as always Johnny. thank you. would you also explain what happens with the start and finish ends to stop them unravelling, please ?
They are tricky little blighters. What I do is make a bit more than I need, then tie off the ends with a constrictor knot, where it is still neat. From there, you can either transition to another decorative knot at each end, or bring the two ends together and then use a constrictor to hold them together, then transition to another knot. If you think you are really getting into this, have a look a Des Pawson's book, here is a review: igkt-solent.co.uk/knot-craft-rope-mats-book-review/
@@KnottingKnots thanks for responding. I assume the 4 strands could be gathered together, as a square profile, and some neat whipping applied too.
@@garryeaster8060 Yes, I always say, you are the master of your own knots! Keep all your work, then every so often look at it to see how far your have progressed 😉 😉 😉

Hi Sir,
I'm from Montreal Québec in Canada. As a French Canadian I find your videos very instructives. Thanks a lot for your Shawinigan such a good experience and skill.
Could you please tell where I can find a knife like yours.
Thanks for your guidance.

Not Shawinigan but "showing"
The knife is a Myerchin. I got the one with white scales as I will one day get someone to scrimshaw it for me. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

How are these tied off at the end or finished to not come undone?
It depends on what you are planning to do with it; if you are creating a neck lanyard, you would bring the two ends together and then use all the strands to tie a decorative knot such as the Matthew Walker knot. If doing a picture frame, I would glue the ends, then cut at 45 degrees for the corners, then cover the joins with a another decorative flat knot, such as the Ocean Plait.
