No pictures. Looks like a bunch of knots. There is obviously a great deal more to making a good looking lanyard than following instructions. I've done three knots so fsar and I thik I following the instructions. However, there is no visible pattern. I'm not giving up though. I have 250 yards of 550 laying here and I better turn it into lanyards or my wife will sting me up with it.

Well, I think the minimum amount I could buy was 50 yards and I bought five colors to match the knives for which I'd like to make lanyards. Also bought some skulls.

yeah, but you can pick up that much cord for about 20 bones shipped. I have a spool of ACU paracord with that much on it. I had no idea it was going to be an actual spool, until I opened the box. it's kinda neat.
