How do you prevent hemp necklaces from twisting as you make them?

Question

...Or are they supposed to twist? This is the site I'm using to show me how to make them:

Answer 1

This pattern is not supposed to twist.

You make two different knots often called two halves of one knot.
Remember to make the other one each time.

This site, (mine) will show you the knot in drawings:
http://knopen.ismijnhobby.nl/tables/macrame_text_table.html
http://knopen.ismijnhobby.nl/tables/square_knot_table.html

You can clearly see the different knots.
If you use just one half, your work will spiral, evenly.
But if you tie one half more often than the other, it will spiral a little, unevenly.
If you have put your work down and start again you do not remember which string to tie with, see where the little stripe is on the side, that side needs to go over the center.
If you do it right you will see a new 'stripe' on the other side.

Sometimes people tie a little knot at the end of their work, or use different colours of elastic bands, so they know which string is the one that goes over all the time.

It is also important to tie the knots tight, and all at the same tension.

Here is a link to an other site that shows what to do in photos, for a twisting bracelet:
