boondoggleman.com has instructions on lanyard making, but this is using lanyard lace, which may not lend itself easily to paracord. I've made lanyard fobs from paracord using the circle stitch and the square stitch. Anything more than four strands and it starts to look lethal/obsene. Two tone lanyards are pretty cool.
