1 Cut a floss or cord 60-65 cm long from each color, depending on the size of your wrist. You will need at least 6 stripes (3 on each side), however, you can use any even number of threads (the more strips you have, the more original and wider the pattern on your bracelet will turn out).
  • 2 Pin them together from one end on a pillow or work surface. You can also use a paper clip. Alternatively, they can be tied to the handle of the drawer.
  • 3 Arrange the stripes in a mirror pattern: stripes of the same color should be on the sides and so on, moving inward. Imagine there is a dividing line in the middle.
  • 4 Starting with the strap on the far right, tie a knot twice on the adjacent strap (second from the right). To tie the right knot, position the outermost strip at a ninety degree angle over the adjacent strip. Then thread it under the second strip and pull it up (remember to make two knots on each strip). After you have tied the knot with the far right strip, do the same with the next strip, which is closer to the middle. Continue this process until you reach the middle. Note: The strip you are tying the knot with, starting from the right, should now be in the middle.
  • 5 Now start tying the knot on the left until you get to the middle. To do this, you need to do the same operation as on the right side. Now tie the left or right strips (doesn't matter) to each other in the middle so that the pattern becomes solid (don't forget to make two knots). Note: if you did everything correctly, then the strips that you tie in the middle should be the same color.
  • 6 Repeat 4-5 steps until you reach the desired length of the bracelet. Always start tying at the outside ends. These stripes should always be the same color. Once you reach the length you want, tie a knot.
  • 7 Secure both ends when finished braiding. Leave the ends long enough to tie the bracelet around your wrist. Note: It is not necessary to use an even number of threads.
  • Tips

    • Use different colors for different occasions, such as pink, red and white for Valentine's Day and red and green for Christmas.
    • Tie tight knots to prevent the bracelet from unraveling.
    • Remember to tie two knots of stripes in the middle, otherwise the bracelet will not work.
    • Remember to tie the knots on the left and right.
    • You can buy floss or other threads from any craft store or store that sells fabrics.
    • Make lots of friendship bracelets and sell.
    • Always be creative.
    • Make bracelets and present to your friends for Christmas.
    • Place the nodes one after another.
    • If your bracelet starts to curl, just iron it.
