Make Your Own White Knot
We are encouraging everyone to make and distribute their own White Knots. This is everyone's symbol.

Hold your own White Knot making party. With a group of about 6 people, you can easily turn out 300 White Knots (with pins) in about 2 hours.

How to make a White Knot
Start with grosgrain (or satin) ribbon available at most fabric and craft stores. Use 5/8" wide ribbon and make 6" strips for large knots or use 3/8" wide ribbon and make 5" strips for medium knots.
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Cut the ends diagonally or cut triangles in them to help prevent fraying.
Tie a knot in the center of the ribbon. Even out the ends as you pull tight.
Tie another knot over the first knot and pull the ends of the ribbon to flatten them out.
Pin it on vertically and you're good to go.
