Infinity Knot Handfasting Cords
An infinity knot - otherwise known as the endless knot is tied in the shape of an infinity symbol and represents endless or everlasting love.
How is an Infinity Knot Wedding Cord Designed for Handfasting Ceremonies?
During a traditional handfasting ceremony, an infinity knot handfasting cord is used as a symbol to represent a couple’s endless love and commitment to each other.
The Infinity Knot handfasting cord is especially designed to be used in your infinity knot handfasting ceremony. This is a unique handfasting ceremony because the knot is tied around each partner's hands and then after the hands are withdrawn, it creates a beautiful infinity knot - a tangible memento from your ceremony with beautiful symbolism.

These handfasting cords are designed to be used for an infinity tie. The loose section in the middle is placed over the couples hands and tied as seen in the video below.

This cord is made up of nine knots, all of which represent either love or eternity and it consists of six cords which have been tied, woven, and braided into a continuous design of Celtic knots. In addition to choosing different colours, this cord can be customised by choosing different accents for the braided sides. We have added small leaves along a jute cord for this customised handfasting cord design.
The Nine Knot Design brings together nine Celtic knots, all of which are associated with love, eternity, and good fortune. The number nine is considered to be particularly powerful in Celtic folklore. This infinity nine knot handfasting cord is designed to highlight the intricate beauty of Celtic knotwork while being substantial enough to make a great impact during your handfasting ceremony and it will also look stunning in photographs.
