How to Make a Monkey's Fist Knot with NO MARBLE

Here is a simple way to tie a monkey's fist knot. Typically you need a marble to form this knot, but this easy method is marble free! This knot makes for a great keychain, but you can get extra creative and incorporate into other projects too.
I am using about 4 ft (122 cm) of 5mm braided cotton rope. I recommend using braided cord (paracord is great!) for this knot, at least when you are first learning.

THIS IS THE BEST TUTORIAL OF MAKING MONKEY KNOTS. I was so confused to watch the other tutorial and thanks God I found your video 😭

[@carriepadgett2743]

This one was 100x easier for me than the marble, thank you!

[@wild_child677]

Omgosh! Thank you so much! I can’t tell you how many videos I’ve watched to simply learn to make a twine monkey fist ball for rabbits and left every video more confused than when I started it! Your video was great and easy to understand!!

[@kyrahofstra5126]

Also doing this for my cat now as well! I cannot believe how easily it forms a ball😻

[@HKAndy1]

Thank you so much. This is the first time for me to make the monkey's fist knot without using a jig. I could not believe that I could have it made on my bare hands! Thank you once more. Have a nice week ahead.

[@carlachiru8600]

This was so helpful thank you!! Also for anyone struggling to find your starting point, I marked it with a piece of masking tape to make it easy to find!

[@jurgita7777]

[@therefindcycle]

Can't thank you enough!!! I tried it so many times and failed... The last try i did was by following your tutorial and I did it😃. Quite an accomplishment I must say for me. Thank you so much.

[@MaiCronopio]

[@rhondab7618]

How would I make this into a keychain? Just have one cord longer?

Instructions unclear, i accidentally found the square root of π

[@mlredden]

Everytime I try to tighten it I end up pulling my knot out and it falls apart.

[@lugaruna]

Well it worked in the end:p only my rope is to softXD. So it got a bit out of shape but my cat's don't mind at all:p

[@GrayWonders]

Oh yes, I’ve found this knot definitely works best with stiff rope. So glad your cats love their new toy! 😝🐱

[@lugaruna]

Yea im guessing this one won't live long but for now they are happy:p.

The tricky part was you photography when you had two strands and suddenly had three.

[@disaannecooper-asperin6415]

You will wonder why your views suddenly increased... I've had my whole class going crazy trying to make one😂
