TO ANYONE WHO GETS TANGLED WHEN DROPPING THE THUMB : In the first step (aka the set-up step), when you make a cross the centre, look carefully which side of the string is on top of the cross. If the LEFT side of the string is on top of the cross, you should use your RIGHT middle finger to proceed the next step. Similarly, if the RIGHT side of the string is on top, you should use your LEFT middle finger to proceed. I basically reminded myself "Never The Same Side" every time I started the hammock. Hope this helps. Happy crafting :)
When i was in fifth grade, string tricks became popular out of nowhere and everyone had one of these wrapped around their wrists like a bracelet at all times so they could do this stuff and i swear this was one of the only tricks i could do
FOR ALL THE PEOPLE THAT SAY THEY CANT DO IT!!!: Watch in the beginning, the crossing of the strings the left one is on top of the right one, you are probably doing the right on top of the left, just by a tiny thing the whole thing ca be wrong, watch carefully what she does and you’ll have it right!! Like if this was helpful and so that other people can see it. Thank you!
I'm currently watching all your string trick videos. once it's ingrained in my memory, its a great way to keep my hands busy when i'm watching tv. i'll definitely be showing my nieces and nephews once i'm able to visit.
This is awesome. I am an organist, so I understand the finger-control. And executing these steps rapidly is a practiced skill. Very cool! I remember doing Cat's Cradle a little bit in my childhood. But these exercises are really useful, and definitely entertaining. I love it!
Your videos are amazing. I watch your videos to improve my English. Your string videos are really helpful with the use of prepositions. Is there anyone else who watches these videos to improve their English?
I LEARNT STRING FIGURES 55 YEARS (!) AGO. TtHE BOOK WRITTEN BY BALL IS MY INSPIRATION. I LEARNT THIS BY SPENDING HOURS TOGETHER AND IMAGINING. OVER THE YEARS THE TECHNOLOGY HAS CHANGED. HOW REFRESHING IT IS TO SEE VIDEO. KUDOS TO THE SCIENCE. THIS IS A REMARKABLE PAST TIME AND EXRCISE FOR THE HANDS AND MIND =RAMANI 17TH MAR 2015.
Thank you so much this is the first video I watched after my aunt got me a yellow finger string for Valentine's Day very simple and definitely my thing to do
This video is great. It was perfect the way you did it sped up at the end so I could try it faster without having to watch the slower tutorial again. Loved doing these as a kid:) Relearned Jacob's Ladder and now I've learned the hammock!!
Well miss! You sure know how to teach string figures! I would never be able to successfully show anyone how to create that fishing net. I would grievously fail. You are amazing!!!!!!!
you've helped me with so many tricks! m friends think i'm a cats cradle master now thanks to you! thank you so much may the lord continue to bless you and your family!
Hi... great easy video to follow! Thanks. My only question is how do I get it off my hands without it all coming undone? I found your video while searching how to make a fisherman's net bc I need a miniature one for a diaper cake I' m making. So I kind of need the net to stay together off my hands. Any suggestions? Thanks!
This is a cool series of videos. I remember having to learn to do string figures from a book and it was soooo confusing. This is so much easier. Thanks for uploading.
I can do it. Well last night. I could but now when I drop the thumbs they are like, inside eachother. What am I doing wrong? Edit: Nevermind when you twist the x at the beginning I was twostong it with my right hand when it should be with your left 💙x
I like ur video very much....it is very easy to understand......I wanted to make a running dog...can u make a video instructing how o make running dog...plzzzzzz
+Steve McDog You must be turning it the wrong way when you are making the 'X' at the beginning. Turn the string away from your body instead of towards it. Then drop the thumbs. Hope this helped!
Paul Sarigianis you have to do no cross at the beginning then take it off your left hand and flip it away from you for the cross the carry on your welcome 🙂🙂
I didn't succeed at the beginning. The side you turn the string is very important. If you don't turn it the right side at the 1st step, you can not go further or you must invert left and right. Once I understood that, I learned it in 3 minutes
Hi ***** , great to see these in depth tutorials. Did you come up with these on your own? I think if you enjoy understanding and visualizing these patterns you will have a good brain for higher maths!
TO ANYONE WHO GETS TANGLED WHEN DROPPING THE THUMB :

Thank you so much it helped me a lot and I did it and I don't know why other people are having trouble
It turns out that the direction of the initial twist matters! (Depending on which hand you start the first move with.)
usted tuvo que ser maestra para tener esa paciencia para poder explicar asi de bien!
u teach so well 😍😍 thanku...i jst loved it nd even i tried ..my first try was best same like u 💖💖
Wow great tutorial! Got it the first time and I usually always tangle this stuff. You were so clear, THANKS! Now i can teach my 9 year old daughter.
Me: Does it
Me: Shows everyone in the house
Me: Wants to show friends
Me: Takes it off
Lilia Valentinova this is a copy but is missing part.
Copied
Oooh! Finally I got it. It's so funny and crazy😁
omg! I loved it. Im a begginer with these but it was awesome
Thank you so much this video helped me and my friend enormously!
It doesn’t work whenever you drop the thumbs they just join together
Pick it up with your left hand first instead of starting with the right hand if that makes sense XD
I did it
Chris Burns I sussed how to do it in 10 minutes
it's because you have somehow done the first step wrong
Twist it the other way!
You are good teaching 😇😇
Top demais!👍🏻🥰
Why did you say too top in different language?
I always see your tutorial for this.Thanks a lot.
Hi... great easy video to follow! Thanks. My only question is how do I get it off my hands without it all coming undone? I found your video while searching how to make a fisherman's net bc I need a miniature one for a diaper cake I' m making. So I kind of need the net to stay together off my hands. Any suggestions? Thanks!
a) Great videos - you're an excellent instructor! and b) I can't believe you have so many "thumbs down" -- who are these clowns?
this worked so good I'm so happy with my results
This is a cool series of videos. I remember having to learn to do string figures from a book and it was soooo confusing. This is so much easier. Thanks for uploading.
When I drop the thumbs it just stays twisted, how do I fix this?
try using your other hand first, in the first step.
Ye
Did you forget to swist it before you drop the string ?
Twist it other way
I'm stoked by the fact that I got it on my first try 😁
Subscribed!!
I made these as a kid, but could only remember jacobs ladder
Thank you
Tip: at 1:51 when the thumbs grab the 2nd last ones make sure you’re right thumb goes over the string the left thumb is bringing 😀
I can do it. Well last night. I could but now when I drop the thumbs they are like, inside eachother. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: Nevermind when you twist the x at the beginning I was twostong it with my right hand when it should be with your left 💙x
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH! I tried a few times but I got it easily. I love ur vids Xx
It's easy, I can do it fast
It's really cool
Practice makes perfect
its soo good i love doing stuff with string
I'm dumber than a box of rocks and I had no trouble making it. 😎
Well I guess I have no *brain cells* in my head cuz I *cant do it*
Thank you so much for these videos me and my daughter have spent hours following these, loving it
I don't get it because every time I let go of my thumb the string still connects and doesn't do what you did
Tamara Donnici it might be because you are twisting the sting the wrong way in the very beginning
me too
Emma Penca is right because that's what happened to me
That’s what happened to me too! I don’t know what she did!
Tamara Donnici same y
U was a best cat's cradel teacher
Its 10:07PM and isted of sleeping im doing this
It works for me, yay! Please could you do a top ten cats cradle tricks video and show how to do them quickly.

Pickle Pop Same
Pickle Pop 0uriorur

My string was connect when I drop the thumbs

I just saw someone say to pick with your left hand first and it worked!!!
Make sure u twist it with ur left hand if u twist it with ur right they connect
yes but you need to do same step if not works on left works on right
Watching and doing it with my 7-year-old. He's very much into Cat's Cradle lately. :D

+Steve McDog You must be turning it the wrong way when you are making the 'X' at the beginning. Turn the string away from your body instead of towards it. Then drop the thumbs. Hope this helped!
