There is one thing about garlands that can be frustrating though, and that is tangles. With so many loops it is easy for a loop to catch on the knot or hardware used to connect one loop to the next. Sometimes the bottom of a loop will twist over the top making smaller than desired openings. Fishing swivels inserted between the loops can help take out twists, but they also add weight and cost and create a place for a loop to catch. Presented below is how I make my tangle resistant garlands without the added weight of swivels between each loop.
