So anytime you see that 'cobra' name used for a knotted item, whether it's made from paracord, gimp strap, or other type of cordage, that's where that particular name originated. <br /><br />Such projects made with gimp strapping have been sold through magazines and taught at summer camps to kids since back in the 1940's and '50s. I doubt many that have tied paracord bracelets or lanyards know that, but I'm sure they prefer that name to calling it scoubidou or macramae, lol... ;)<br /><br />*Note that the actual knots used are ancient and have most likely been around longer than can be documented.Stormdranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04291715625908183030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535211091219608418.post-75366484004405983452011-06-01T03:54:54.146-07:002011-06-01T03:54:54.146-07:00Storm, is the "King" Cobra stitch named ...Storm, is the "King" Cobra stitch named that simply because its tied over the Cobra stitch??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
