Bracelet Patterns

Making a friendship bracelet can be a tricky task for those who've never attempted it before. However, as long as you keep these few things in mind, you should find it to be a lot simpler than expected!

► The designs are based on different kinds of knots, especially forward knot, backward knot, and forward-backward knot. In order to attempt making any of these patterns, you would need to learn and practice each of these knots thoroughly. Practice them a couple of times before starting off. Once your knots are precise, most of these designs will be a cakewalk for you!

► Get a good work surface. To tie the knots correctly, you will need to constantly maintain pressure on the strings. Thus, it is a must to secure the free end of the bracelet firmly.

► Quick Tip: Safety pins can be life saviors while making friendship bracelets. You can knot one end of the strings to a safety pin and secure it onto the lower portion of your trouser. This way, they are held firm at the perfect distance to continue knotting!

► It is important to maintain moderate and constant pressure along the strings. Holding too tightly will cause the bracelet to curl up weirdly, while holding too gently will cause the knots to be aloof, and the pattern won't come together as visualized.
