ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a method of making a decorative ring link and to the resulting article. The method involves: placing a first piece of lacing and a second piece of lacing in substantially parallel alignment; bending the pieces of lacing so that each piece has a longer strand and a shorter strand; binding, e.g. by taping, the pieces at a location so as to cause the bent portion of each of the pieces of lacing to form an open eyelet portion above the binding location and so as to leave a longer strand and a shorter strand of each piece below the binding location, the longer strand of the first piece being a looper and the longer strand of the second piece being a weaver; knotting the longer strands about the shorter strands; repeating the knot-forming steps to form a plurality of knots cutting through each piece of lacing at its eyelet portion so that each shorter strand becomes separate from its corresponding longer strand; forming an endless ring by inserting one end of at least one short strand under one or more knots located at the distant end therefrom; and, continuing to form knots about said shorter strands according to the procedure above, at least until the last formed knot is formed substantially contiguously to the first formed knot.
