    Okay, i have a spool (or whatever its called) of very wide hemp, probrably about half a centimeter in diameter. Ide like to make a belt or strap for one of my messenger bags (the original strap broke off and i think a hemp one would look even better.


    What type of knot would you suggest that would look best to be used as a belt?

    I'd say a basic square knot would be cool.. it would lay flat against your shoulder while you were using it. If the hemp is super thick.. it won't take long at all to tie up a sweet strap using a square knot.
