    So cute! I really love that first one - very delicate and sweet. These would layer up so well. Thanks for a great tutorial that's easy to follow.

    You just tie both ends together with the excess yarn on each side. That's the way a traditional friendship bracelet is tied. You could always add clasps and jump rings if you want :)

    hey thanks that was really fun, I used the square knot type with 7 colors( 2 of each color so 14 threads) and alternated to make a rainbow bracelet, turned out perfect, thanks so much :):):):):)

    Thanks so much! Been contemplating on opening a little shop since my sister and I love making bracelets and I've gotten a lot of requests to sell some.

    I've been making bracelets and stuff for years and this is good for beginners (:

  • @MadeSimplyNikki
    @MadeSimplyNikki  12 років тому +1

    Tie a knot to end the weave. You can leave extra cord on each end so they can be tied or knot enclosures at each end (ex: clasp and jump ring).

  • @MadeSimplyNikki
    @MadeSimplyNikki  12 років тому

    It's best to use embroidery thread because it will knot better. Yarn is a bit thicker and won't knot as easily. But you could give it a try and see if you like the look of it!

    The first one I made did not spiral around the whole bracelet. I must have pulled it strange, despite my mistake the others came out beautiful. Thanks for the tutorial, and a new hobby. :)

  • @MadeSimplyNikki
    @MadeSimplyNikki  12 років тому

    Make sure the middle string is held taut, and you knot the string all at an even pressure :). It takes practice, but once you've made a few it turns out better.

  • @samf3308
    @samf3308 11 років тому

    I did the square knot bracelet and it came out great! I recommend using a thicker string for this type of bracelet though. Overall great video, thanks!

    It is a little hard to explain, so that's why I did close ups demonstrating the steps. Just take your time with it, it gets a little complicated for me as well. But it's a fun hobby to try out :).

  • @RocKStaR1231000

    It's simply doing overhand knots which was the first knot demonstrated in the video.

  • @MadeSimplyNikki
    @MadeSimplyNikki  12 років тому

    Thank you :)

  • @MadeSimplyNikki
    @MadeSimplyNikki  12 років тому

    You may be pulling too hard. Try to tug each knot at an even pressure so it's consistent. And if it "twists", when you pull the square knot place your finger flat on the knot so it stays flat. :)

    Or it's the other way around lol. I don't say "cobra" because it's just not how I see it, I always grew up learning it as a square knot. :)

    I explain it in the video to make the complete knot on the remaining cords to your right. I had to cut out the footage of me completing an entire set because it was out of focus. But I do explain it.

    You can use yarn , or braiding cord for anyone wondering , it will just come out a bit thicker :) embroidery floss looks better though, just an opinion from me

      Lumuna Gaming I tie them😂 the knot is like quadruple knotted so it won't come off

    • @jenneen4432
      @jenneen4432 7 років тому

      EmEm's Playhouse I know this is really late, but if ever you still make them, you can actually use buttons as locks so you won't have to cut them off. You can search up some few videos to help you. I do this and it's really easy. 😊

    @trancedandperplexed 12 років тому

    Are you sure you're doing the square knot? I know the spiral normally happens if you do only one side of the knot, (ie. only making a "p" with the right strand or only making a "4" with the left strand). Square knots are hard to keep track of, so it's normal for that to happen.

    There are many names that people give the bracelets. I just named them according to the knots and how they look. If you do find my tutorial confusing, you can always replay it. I tried my best to demonstrate and explain.

    • @BoopSnoot69
      @BoopSnoot69 10 років тому

      Because it's so simple they don't need to show it in the video. It's literally a single knot. It's just tying the strings together at the top! I can't even explain it

      It's just a knot. It's like when you tie your shoe, its the first knot you make. You just do the knot on itself, not with 2 strings. It's simple.
