From Our Workroom
Tie round cord with a tight double knot and leave a short tail. On masks and button loops, stitch back and forth over the cord ends a few times: one line of stitching can let round cord slip out.
For bracelets, stretch the cord a few times before you string the beads, so the finished bracelet doesn't loosen.
