Lugging around a water bottle is a pain in the neck and the possibility of misplacing it or losing it is high.

This is particularly true if you are under any type of pressure and are trying to focus on many things at once, which makes this amazing water bottle harness a vital tool.

Here is how to make it:

Start With The Carabiner.

Beginning with a carabiner of your choice, you begin tying your cord with a girth hitch, then end it in an overhand.

Braiding.

This is what you might call the “four strand round braid” which will be used repeatedly throughout the project .

#4 goes under #3 and #2, between #1 and #2, then goes over #2, becoming #3. #1 goes under #2 and #3, between #3 and #4, then goes over #3, becoming #2. After that you repeat the pattern.

First Attachment.

Begin with a simple over hand knot but in this case we will be wrapping the end around it several times on both sides until they reach back to the braided cord. The knot should fit snugly around the bottles neck. Then finish off with another over hand knot at the base.

Second Attachment.

Next is another session of braiding. Braid as we have done before until you reach the sort of “stomach” or “belly of the jug, where you usually hold it. Continue with over hand knots until you come back to the base

This incredible water bottle harness is easy to make and removes the need to hold a water bottle when you are hiking.

Because you can hook it onto your backpack, it also alleviates having to open your backpack to get to your water. For this an other awesome ideas, please visit Instructables.
