How do a make a bead bracelet with knots in between the beads?

I would like to know how to make knotted bead bracelets especially how to attach a clasp. I’m using cotton cord to thread the beads on. Is there a particular type of knot that goes in between thee beads and how do I attach a clasp at the end?
Please help?

I’m not sure if you are talking about macrame or knotting as in pearl stringing. Pearl stringing uses a plain overhand knot. If you are using other beads, with larger holes, you may have to use bead caps or spacer beads to prevent knots slipping through the holes. There are many ways to attach a clasp, all dependent on the type of clasp, how you end the necklace / bracelet and your own preferences. May I suggest an on-line search for pearl stringing or pearl knotting.
