Got Paracord…Got Molle Pack?
Want to save space inside your molle pack, want to learn another carrying option for the outside of your molle pack? I’ll show you how I made this paracord panel that clips to your carabiners and makes a small paracord flap/ pocket to hold certain things you may want to carry for your journeys, adventures, and commute.
Let’s begin, It doesn’t take long. I used 50 ft of paracord for this panel, you can use any color of course. I made a daisy chain out of almost the whole length, it took less than 10 minutes and the more footage on the paracord the bigger the panel. I added a cord end and a loop to the one end, leaving the final working end bare because it’s much easier to weave the remaining cord that is not cinched up from the daisy chain into the little loops and in and out thru the small meshes for the weave.
When you’re finished with the daisy chain make bends up and down to create a square or rectangle and just flatten it out to see the whole shape to weave the working end of the cord thru the chain itself. This will connect your panel together.
Just keep going back and forth from one end back to the other end of the panel, It will take shape.
When all connected I weave the extra working end of the cord in the other direction to keep the panel from stretching out too much, even though that can be useful and maybe a good thing. You can also cinch up the remaining cord, start another daisy chain, and weave it out of the way. There is no right or wrong way, you just want to create the panel and make sure it is intact.
The next key factor is the molle backpack or more so the PALS webbing for the anchor points. I hope you found value in this tutorial, it all starts with paracord and the imagination. Have fun with it and don’t overthink it. I hope it also adds convenience to your carrying options, as always stay safe and adventurous wherever the day takes you!
