Step 11002 viewsThe materials you will need for this crotchrope are:
- 20 to 40 feet of black 5/16-inch rope for the waist rope.
- Eight feet each of red, black, and green 5/16-inch rope for the braid.
- Two rubber bands like they sell for holding ponytails in place.
We are using solid-braid MFP rope from Rainbow Rope at http://www.RainbowRope.com
Drape the three eight-foot ropes over the edge of your hand. The order should be red, black, and green, from front to back, and the ropes should be centered over your hand.

Step 10971 viewsKeep wrapping until you are almost out of rope. You should have two rope ends in your hand. Take one end and run it through the the loop (the one that was formed earlier when you changed wrap directions). Now tie the two ends together in a square or reef knot (left over right, right over left). The completed waist rope should look something like this.

Step 171125 viewsThe completed crotchrope looks like this.
There are a couple of alternative ways to finish the crotchrope. One is to unbraid the crotchrope to a few inches below where it meets the waist rope in back, then rebraid it into two three-strand braids (just like you use for making pigtails in hair). Put a rubber band on each end. Then slip one pigtail under the waist rope, and tie the two pigtails in a square or reef knot. This is a pretty finish, and makes it easier to adjust the tension.
For less bulk in the back, you could unbraid the end of the crotchrope as before, run one set of three ends under the waist rope, and again tie a square or reef know, treating each set of three ends as one.
And if you want a narrower crotchrope, you can follow the same procedure, but with two ropes instead of three. If you use contrasting colors for the ropes it makes lovely chevrons, just like the three-rope version.
The end of the crotchrope with the loops is inherently prettier and less bulky than the end with the knot. So if you’re doing this for show, put the loops on the side that shows. And if you’re doing it for play, put the loops on the side she will be lying on.
I hope this crotchrope brings you and your partner lots of pleasure.
