Step-By-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Cut 3 lengths of nylon cording 24ā to 30ā long depending on sizing.Ā
Step 2: Line up the three strings and tie them all together about Ā¼ of the way down. (Leave enough length to be able to make the adjustable part at the end)
Step 3:Ā Tape the top of the strings to a surface to secure them. Separate the three strings so that you have: left, center and right.Ā
Step 4: To make a flower, place 3 seed beads of your color choice on the left strand and 3 seed beads of your color choice on the right strand.Ā (As an example, we chose 3 yellow and 3 red and alternated each side) Place 1 bead for the center of your flower on the center strand (we used gold). Push the acrylic beads tightly against the knot.Ā
Step 5: Keeping beads snug against the first knot, loop all the strands into a knot and tie as closely to the beads as possible.Ā
Step 6:Ā RepeatĀ steps 3 - 5. To make a flower around the acrylic Alphabet Letters add 4 beads each on the left and right strands.Ā
Step 7: When finished your design, overlap the ends of the strings. With the 10ā string, tie a single knot around both ends (6 strands total) and make 2 or 3 square knots (useĀ this video tutorial to learn how to make the square knots). Cut remaining ends and fuse to the knotted piece to secure.Ā
Step 8: Loop knots on the ends of your triple strands on either side to complete your adjustable friendship bracelet.Ā
