Required materials:

1 card of size 10 Griffin nylon (one is sufficient for most 8mm malas; the second thread mentioned in the video is strictly insurance)
3 counter beads (10mm used in the video)

Thank you so so much for this video. I bought my mala (blue lapis)when the Jade Buddha was here in South Florida, many years ago, and they broke. I have researched and purchased every thread that they claim will stand up to semi-precious beads. None last very long. Your video is the first and only one I needed to watch. I can, now, restring my mala and know it will last. Thank you, thank you, thank you❣
Omg I have been watching mama tutorials ALL day and (k)not one (get it 🙄😅) had as perfect to follow tutorial on knitting as this one. THANK YOU!!!!
I see what you did there 😂
Thank you so so much! This has helped me so much and I just made my first Mala thank you again!🎉❤
out of every video i’ve seen, this is the only one that’s been successful so far. thank you!
Hi, I’m a rosary maker who also knots in between each bead and your tweezer trick has helped me a lot.
Yes! I agree. I’ve never thought to do this, but I am forever grateful because knotting string will now be much easier/neater for me now.
I’d love to know how you do your rosaries. Anywhere you can point me?
THANK YOU!!! Finally a video that’s clear, and concise, and inspiring!!!
Thanks so much Catherine ❤️
I just love how slow you are! Wonderful first video 💙 beautiful voice! This woman Is beautiful! Thank you!!
You underestimate your teaching skills. Thank you for the details
I’m just starting out and am gratefully appreciative of the extra tutoring. My hands look like yours so we must be close to the same age. I welcome your talents and thankful I found you.
Great tutorial! Cathy's classes in-person are even better! Cathy, you are ready for PRIME TIME!
Oh my goodness. You’ve done such a beautiful job on these. I’m wishing I had the materials in my craft stash to start right away!
*sighs* I guess I can do the other part and get online and shop for/pick out the supplies. 😊 but, the wait is going to be the death of me. Maybe I’ll practice by making some kind of a mini with whatever I can piece together from my stash! 😂
Thanks for sharing this. You’ve done a lovely job at explaining and demonstrating. ❤ I just stumbled across your page, but not I am a forever subscriber.
Hugs from Michigan. 🫶🏼
Thank you so much!!! your tutorial has been the best by far!!! I have seen many tutorials about making Mala necklaces ...yours has topped them all. thanks again
Great session Catherine! We love being there in person but this is the next best thing!
You’re doing an amazing class. Well done. Now we can all make a Mala and buy our beads from Nomad Desings!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have made unknotted malas. My Crystal and amethyst mala broke after enough mantras and I want to knot it this time. You’re a great teacher!
Super nice tutorial, Catherine. Even the most experienced knotter is going to learn new tricks/techniques from you! Looking forward to your future videos.
Loved this video! Simple to the points instructions and slow enough to see exactly 💯 how you're doing it. I actually made a PRIVATE PLAYLIST just for this video so I could easily refer back to it anytime 😊. Thank you so much for sharing ❤ 💕.
Not only did I buy a kit from Nomad but I got a great video also. Thanks!!!
Some friends and I took this class from Catherine last year, to celebrate a friend's baby. We loved it and treasure our malas! I'm grateful you did this Catherine bc I'm challenged in remembering the knotting process here....
Thank you very much for making this video! I have made my own Mala Beads using your technique and I love how it turned out. I will also be making rosaries using your technique as my old ones were made with too much spaces between the knots since I didn't know that you can use a tweezer to tighten the knots.
Thank you again!
Thank you so much for making this video, Catherine! so much FUN and easy to follow. I needed a refresher from making in class with you. 📿
It's the easiest way I've ever seen. Thank u.
finally I've found this great video, after watching so many rubbish videos
May Almighty God bless your hands... you are real helpful from this side. I love you... Thank you again!!🎉🎉🎉
Really helpful. I would never have thought of using tweezers. thank you 🙏🏻
July5,2023,,,,Thank You🙏🏼 i have 13 malas to restring. And what a trip the first half was. Who'd thought putting a knot by a bead required practice!! i need needlenose tweezers now!✌🏼
I had the wrong thread #6 so my beads were passing by, ;) and making 2 knots were still coming thru....Thank you very informative.
The best Tutorial I’ve found! Thank you so much!
Beautiful Mala and a great explanation video. Thank you!
Thank you! I can't wait to make one soon.

How many round beads total? 108 amethyst, plus 3 aventurine spacers?
What brand of tweezers are you using? They have a nice, wide grip, which I need! Thanks
I don't understand one if the step, one of the mala some people do every 11, 1 different color, in this ine the lady is doing 27, can some one have the Knowledge about this beautuful Tranquility and Label Peace necklace what's the difference please??
I'm trying to make my own one, but i don't know if any difference for one person to other, the color's and long of the stream ¿-?
Please, please, i have a intuition the i have my own ine assap. Thanks🤲
🙏Namaste🙏
Thank You!!!!!
Would you please do a video on how to make a giant loop for easy clasping on the end of a beaded necklace that doesn’t have individual knots in between?
thanks!!!
Very easy video to understand. Thank you. May I know what number nylon thread are you using please and thank you.
The whole reason I'm wanting to make my own is because all the commercial ones seem to use nylon, only for the video to suggest nylon as well. Why not natural fibers like hemp, jute, cotton, etc?
How much nylon did u need? I got one card that was 2 meters I'm nervous it won't be enough
Can you speak briefly to the significance of 27 beyond being 1/4 of 108?
So just to be clear, the green beads (marker beads) are not part of the 108?
❤😊
Good👍
Hi I wanna ask: I end up needing extra thread because my mala is becoming long. I only find 2m of Griffin so I need to combine two. Can you make a video to show how we should do this?
How do you tie two strings together? Do you have a name of a particular knot that I can look up?
what size thread do i need for 4 mm beads?
Can I order guru beads from you?
What is the size of thread?
Puedes traducir en español por favor
i’m gonna go ahead and take the beads off of that string and put ‘em on this string.
Thank you!
