This necklace, knotted from a knitting yarn, is limp.  It would have been much nicer if the twist was tighter.  But the tassel is good.  Save some of the lighter weight threads for tassels.

The fuzzy texture does not detract from these knots since the cord was spun tightly.   Would look better if a contrasting color was used also.  Corresponds with texture in Yak Rug.
