what does 4 knots mean

I don't know what the knots mean other than being a means of tightening the bracelet. I do think that the knots originally were to distinguish the tribe represented but I wouldn't know one from the other.

The 4 knots represent the 4 Elements ( Fire,Sun,Water,and Wind ). The strands of hair passing through the knots represent the seasons of the year. The movement of the knots along the strands shows the forces of nature and represents constant evolution. It is believed that though these,it brings the wearer Fortune,strength,and Good Luck.

While the 4 knots may have some deeper meaning, the main purpose is to allow a larger or smaller opening for a custom fit of the bracelet.

I think so, there are four loop's on each net, two on each side and it stretches.

It is a Tri-fold meaning there are three sections that can fold back. There is a thinner section that does not fold and stays in place, so that may be why it looks like 4.

We just tied knots, but a strap with hooks or something like that might be best. Especially if much more length is needed. Grandkids love it!

The 5 means a 5 hole wheel. 4.5 means the distance from the center of 1 stud to the center of the third stud multiplied by 1.05

I really don't know. I have always used 4 and never thought about using 2. I don't know why you could use just 2 though.

I used this for decoration in a capey way, and did not cut it. It's gone now, so I can't answer honestly. HOWEVER, if I remember right, the knots are KNOTS, and not like knitting or crochet.... So I do not THINK it will ravel..... Sorry I can't help more !Joline

I have no idea what four means....all I can tell you is that this thing is large enough to use in a pot of tea...it's not for cups! Maybe the four means 4, 8oz cups?

4 or maybe a little more.This is the best neck knife I have seen yet,bought two of them.Most neck knives lack sizable handles,and you cannot get a good hold on them for leverage.This is not a toy but a workable knife for all uses.Wish they came with a belt sheath also,though.

The number represents the number of stitches per inch of canvas. This determines the type of fibers one uses to stitch the piece. I have completed this kit and it their recommendations produces a nice stocking. If it uses thread which I believe it did. Separate the six strands and then put back together and don't use any thread longer than 12 inches per piece or they will fray as you pull them thru the canvas. I hope this helps. M

What does that mean? I haven't but it yet and I want to make sure that it can last long enough since I already get 4.

A previous response stated four elements, but I believe what appears to be four is two, as the element is a loop. I may be wrong.

Yes, my friend also got the bags and this is what she did. Tying a knot used up too much valuable space. I hope they make them 1/2 the size soon.

Come on look at the strength of this size rope. If your boat must be held by one of these lines only then NO but as you are looking to tie your boat off with 5 lines yes they will do the job. Just remember the breaking strength which for nylon line like this is 900lbs x circumference squared x 2.5 in this 3/8" diameter case it would be 900x(3.14x.375)2 x2.5 = 3,123 lbs. each line. This formula can be used for any diameter. The factor of 2.5 is for nylon, Dacron is 2.0 and Polypropylene is 1.4 and Manila rope is 1.0Knowing this you can determine any line/rope's breaking point and in your case with 5 lines it will be OK for your 5,000 lbs slipped boat.

You find three places as close to straight out from of the three ends that the ropes will reach with enough left to tie SECURELY !!!! And make sure the places you tie to can take a LOT I repeat a LOT of pulling weight. You are putting up a "sail" and it would move a small boat if you get big winds.If you need more clarity, ask me , Vern The other answer was good for detail,
