The object
Roughly four hundred knots, one afternoon, and about three podcast episodes. The dowel is oak rather than pine because pine bows under the weight of the rope within a year — I found that out the way everyone finds things out. It arrives ready to hang with the cord already attached.
Materials
Undyed 4mm cotton rope, solid oak dowel
Process
Knotted top down on a wall frame so gravity does the tensioning for me. I comb the fringe out at the end with a pet brush, which is the least glamorous part of the job and makes the biggest difference.

Care instructions
Keep it out of direct sun and don't hang it in a bathroom — cotton takes on humidity and the knots will loosen. Shake it out or run a vacuum brush over it once in a while.
