Thank you, from the deep of my heart. For months im looking to learn it, and now finally I think I can make mine. God bless you ❤

Thank you so much for making a slow enough tutorial. This feels like my 1000th try but I finally got one knot

My goodness, never realized how labor intensive this prayer chain is. I'm grateful to my Mom bringing one back from Greece. Thank you Sophia.

I had to watch this video 100 times but I think I have it now, may Christ bless you!

Angelic face, angelic smile, vioce and angelic hands teaching us to make the angelic knot and prayer rope. I am honored to have you always in my prayers Ms. Sophia, for patiently, clearly and thoroughly helping me to learn how to make a prayer rope. I sincerely thank you. May +God+ bless you always.

This video is a great resource for anyone seeking to learn how to make Orthodox prayer ropes. Please send us photos of the prayer ropes you create!

I like "prayerful breads" being your "little painting". That's sweet.

This is the most clear example I've seen so far, thank you!

Don’t get discouraged. Mistakes are part of the process.

You are so kind and quiet at spirit, this says so much about you, God bless you, your are definitely special☦️🙏🏼

Blessed Sophia, I miss you. Love you and thank you for making this.

Too tired to attempt this right now, but thank you! I had set out to make a 300 knot rope (my first ever rope) as a gift for my son last year, but got so discouraged. Your video makes it seem more attainable :)

Would love to get an updated tutorial!

Thanks you for showing how its made,im gona make one myself❤❤❤☦️

Thank you for making this great video.

Thank you for this beautiful presentation, and God bless you!

Thank you for sharing

This is so beautiful and inspiring. I'm going to try and make one now. Thank you so much for sharing.💖

Very nice video Sophia 💕💕

Amazing video my sister thank you very much

Thank you.

God bless you

Thank you

Nice Vid!

This is the proof that god exist. No human being could ever come up with that knot.

Showing with two different light color threads might help illustrate how cords should flow.

Beautiful tutorial! It was very helpful. On my way to my first prayer rope 😊 Who is singing the Jesus prayer?

God bless you, Sophia! Do you know who is chanting the Jesus Prayer in this video? It is absolutely beautiful!

I have found a method that works well for me when attaching a Cross, or Crucifix to a knotted Prayer Rope, it is thus: 1: Tie a fairly loose four strand diamond knot. 2: Proceed to pass the four strands through the eye typically found on Crosses, preferably in opposite directions. 3: Thread the aforementioned strands back through the center of the knot. 4: The whole arrangement may be secured by using the strands that are now coming out the top of the knot to tie another four strand diamond knot above the original. However, one may use alternate knots that may be preferable. I hope the above was helpful, and not explained too badly. Post Scriptum: I would recommend having a fid, or marlin-spike to help with the tying, adjusting, and tightening of the knots.

thank you for this video I've been trying to find the right measurements for diameter of string and for number of knots but few videos seem to give direct and clear instructions. please could you help by making a short video of for example of each of the different lengths including 33, 50, 100 knots and how long the length of string needed depending of mm eg; 1.5mm or 2 mm for each of the lengths . for example I would really like to make a 100 knot prayer rope and a 33 knot and I have a 1.5 mm chord and I have no idea how long the rope should be ...

I learned how to do it from this video its very nice. I also loved the background track if u can attach the link here 😍🤝

Greetings from St. Gregory the Theologian Orthodox Church in Wappingers Falls, NY.

Hello Did you already figure out how to add the elastic cord to the rope? 💜

Amazing well done video. Clear steps and explanation but for the life of me I cannot get it. As soon as I start to tighten it looks fine but the ears don’t adjust

at 8:47: it does not go under all of the cords...it only worked when i pulled it through the top 3...but great video regardless--it helped me so much

Can someone please explain to me what to do after the bunny ear step. I put the knot in place but didn't understand what to do with the next step on how to get rid of the bunny ears.

Please tell me what size satin cord you use.

Quero fazer mas não entendo inglês, vou tentar.

Beautiful video, and an incredible introduction the the Jesus Prayer and the prayer rope. Where can I find the recording of your background track?

How much cord should I use for a 100 knot one???

I’m having a problem with the removal of all the strings but the ring string does it go behind or in front of all the strings u remove lol I’m frustrated lololol

I've learned how to make a chotky with 4 strands. Is there a difference between a 4 strand knot and the 2 strand knot? (liturgically speaking, obviously there are differences in the knotting )

I’ve been doing this since 23:20 it’s 2:30 and I still have not done more than 5 in one go 😢

What is the proper way to close the prayer rope if we do not a cross on the end?

We should bring back cubits which is the fore arm

I always get stuck at the part where she pulls the bunny ears through 3 times!! Someone please help I really want to make this prayer rope!!! ❤️‍🩹

Its so hard to do it I tried it like 100 Times and I still struggle to figure out how to make a knot.

prayer rope is not for fashion or for calming your hands . It's for counting . For example you ought to pray 120 times Áve, María, grátia pléna;- so you must count not to prononce less . Most of the rope has 30 or 40 beads

This is hard

And it is worth ordering from the priest in the church to read the akathist for your name of St. Cyprian and St. Justine and of St. Archangel Michael against magic and all enemies visible and unvisible. This is if you are baptized Orthodox. There always were sorcerers even after Jesus said it is from devil they remaind in every country and on every second or third family something is put from a sorcerer. And when you intend to go to command the akathist in the church, such thoughts may appear: "Maybe tomorrow, or next week", "Maybe I'm such a freak and no one is watching me (girls or boys, if you can not anyways find a pair, or you can for some reason speak only with one girl or boy.)", "The life is this way with good times and bad times", " I am so (if you have impotence)". etc. These thoughts come from demons from sorcery spells because only the prayer of the priest can 100% protect from magic and enemies visible and invisible. Jesus Christ told the apostles(which are the first priests) "I give you the right to untie everything that is tied in heaven and on earth.". Faith and creed is opinion, is how somebody thinks with his head. Repent is changing and not auto-humiliation as many think. May be enherited soul ilnessses like despresia, schizofrenia, Tourette sindrom, insomnia, bifurcation of personality etc. as they are from soul illnesses. Firstly everyone must to eradicate schizofrenia, depression etc. from him and after that to planify making children, in order that they will not jump from balconie, have blood cancer, be born bodytobody joined twins or two headed and etc. These soul illnesses can be healed by eucharisty. In the afternoon before eucharist day you have to read " The prayers before eucharisty" where are asked from eucharisty such things like: soul and body healing, sins forgiveness, protection from devils etc. It is better to go to confession in the morning in the day of eucharisty(before eucharisty)because from evening to morning everyone can make the same sins again and again and also other bigger sins. If not to forgive someone who asked for forgiveness it is not worth going to eucharisty because the sins will not be forgiven. Humbleness is awareness that in every doing you can fall and not auto-oppresion as most do and think, someone without auto-oppression is 100% free in moves in every direction, it is like a lion at freedom .Entering(submersion 3 times with a certain prayer and crossing yourself) in water springs of orthodox saints (which are near or in monasteries)give very much power and sureness to people with depression, panic attacks, schizofrenia and other soul illnesses, there are some springs of mother of God Maria that even heal soul illnesses.

I think 11 yards is way to much based on other videos!

I am somewhat crafty and enjoy the video thing I am not Orthodox but I came here to watch the video and with great interest but it's so sad to see the comments and I'm even thinking myself why does it have to be so complicated to work when it's to remind you key you into prayer and try to help you to not forget to pray and many other things could be said but when I see the comments man I just don't get it watching various Orthodox groups squabble Over The Prayer chords and the way they're not tied or not qualified to be used by other Orthodox groups now I'm not saying that this is wrong cuz Protestants we put little sticky tabs on the mirror in the bathroom are on the refrigerator in the kitchen to remind us of our prayers and scripture memorization but at least we don't squabble over sticky tabs on the refrigerator are on the dash of a car LOL

It really would help alot if you went slower!!! 🤗

Wow. Difficult. I commend you.

Lol just make a shop and sell them on ebay no way I am going to make one of them

Don't you have Rosary that Catholic church does?

Cover you head lady

This prayer rope is for Greek Orthodox and not for coptics And an angel taught it to the monk from Mount Athos Stop taking our heritage and ascribing it to you, and it does not belong to you
