Have your leading string me the other half of your odd thread, that will give you a even number.I saw a topic just yesterday on where to buy d rings, it shouldn’t be that hard to find |

Here's what I usually do:Let's say you have 9 base strings, you take 4 strings double the length and fold them in half so you have 8 base strings, you take the leading string and knot the loop using fb or bf knots, the shorter end of the leading string should have the same length as your base strings, the end of the leading string is your 9th base string If you don't do a loop there's nothing different from what you would do with an even amount |
