Choose Your Colors

You can use 1-6 colors on this bracelet. I chose these two colors because they reminded me of a campfire.

Cut Your Embroidery Thread

Depending on how many colors you use will determine how many strands you will need.

1 color = 6, 24 in. strands of that color

2 colors = 3, 24 in. strands of each color

3 colors = 2, 24 in. strands of each color

6 colors = 1, 24 in. strand of each color

Tie

Tie all the strands together

at this point you can tape down the knot (optional)

Split Into 3's

By now you should have 6 strands

Split the 6 strands in to 2 groupings of 3

Make a Four

Under and Over

Take the top strand and weave it under the first strand and over the top of the second one.

Pull Tight

Pull both strands tight. Make sure the loop doesn't go over the first knot.

Repeat

Repeat the same steps but make sure to do it on the other side.

Repeat

Repeat the steps.

(You are basically tie knot over and over again)

Repeat
