Ask the Experts Best Knot and Glue for Elastic Cord Q&A

What kind of knot do you tie when using elastic cord for a bracelet so it is secure when you're done beading?

- Cathleen

It is recommended to tie elastic cord using a square or surgeon's knot. 

Once knotted, you'll want to apply an adhesive to the knot. Choose an instant adhesive such as Vigor Super Glue or a flexible adhesive like E6000® Jewelry and Craft Adhesive. Both of these adhesives will work to help secure your knot and your finished design.
