RING DOG TOY

Create this two-tone ring dog toy by combining two lengths of the basic 4 strand crown knot. Easily adjust the size and scale of this toy based on the rope or the size of your pet. For 3/8" rope figure 4" of rope for every 1" of finished knot, ie: 6" finished knot uses 24" of rope.
 

1. Begin by cutting 4 equal length ropes, here I used 60" or 5' long ropes.
    
2. Use 2 of the 4 ropes to create a 7" long finished crown knot.
    
3. Then watch the video as to combine the second section to the first and finish it.

Love this idea! I've wanted to do circles like that before but couldn't figure out how to join the ends; the whole time I never thought to use two sections joined at the base.

I have one instructable for a cat/small dog toy using crown knots for the handle. Our pets love it (and rope toys in general).
