Your tutorials are so well explained!! ( coming from a beginner ) you should sell your bracelets and if you did I would definitely but them!!
All I wish for is using the correct term for the knots. Macrame which came from fishing knots using the same terminology - what you are doing here is a half-hitch knot. A right or left half-hitch knot makes a "flat" knot, a series of right or left half-hitches gives the knot a twisting motion.
Can I change colors when I change sides? The pattern I'm making is half and half and im wondering if I can have 2 colors.
I actually use my feet to make them sometimes 😂 I hook the loop onto my first or second toe and it works perfectly 😂
Daniel Whidden lol!
Ahaha thats how i used to make bracelets
I use to do that, but it would hurt my leg and back after a while. Now I tape any bracelets I'm working on the table
LOL same! It really does work!
I DO THAT ALL THE TIME
I’m really really really happy that your video got put in my recommended!!! I’ve been making bracelets since I was 12, I’m now 20, and this is a whole world of bracelet making I never knew!! Like holy I’m so excited to make new patterns and bracelets with all the info I’ve gotten from your channel! 💙
Welcome! Same story for me actually except I was 11 when I started and am now 21 haha
66th like! : )
I'm 17 and started last week. 😋It is such a lot of fun and an amazing way to spend time while in quarantine
I have only been making for about a month and I’m pretty good at it!!!
I'm 13 I'm starting now 😋😋😋
I'm a beginner and your tutorials are perfect for me, I love how well you know what you're doing and the high quality of your tutorials
Quality tutorials are a rare commodity indeed, good day mate. God bless you and yours 🙂
This is exactly what I've been needing for my bracelets for over 30 years! Thank you so much!
Glad I could help! :)
i usually tie a knot at the top of my bracelet pattern, then poke a safety pin through the knot, then safety pin it to my jeans or any surface.
Gracie Stone same lol
Same too
Me too
Thats really smart
that's what i used to do before i learned how to do the basic loops and triangle ends a couple days ago :)
Hi! I use a binder to secure my bracelet once I have a loop. I'll just open one of the rings and loop it on there. Works perfectly and gives me a nice flat surface to work on.
Excellent advice.
One of the most detailed and helpful tutorial video, for "how to start a bracelet".
Thank you for showing us the way to do this loop.
The talent you have, for decoding the pattern, is amazing!!!
Congratulations!!!
Glad it was helpful!
This is so cool! I thought it would be impossibly hard, but after your explanation, it looks very doable :D I've always started my bracelets with an unbraided loop and a knot, and ended them with a simple braid, and then wrapped the loop onto/around the braid so that I could move the "wrapped loop" up and down the braid and make the bracelet on my wrist loose or tight, but tbh the teardrop loop looks so much cooler :D Thanks!
Yeah I used to do that too haha
@@MashaKnots 🤣 same. God bless you and don't forget to smile, it's contagious 🙂😊😁😄😃😀
I find securing the bracelet to a cushion using a safety pin very useful! ☺️
Bigger the cusion the better the pushin or tying in this particular case
These videos are inspiring. Especially, at a time when we have to stay home. My daughter and I have started a new hobby of bracelet making together. Thank you!
That's beautiful, anyway to spend quality time with your children is a blessed event 🙂
I used to make simple friendship bracelets when I was younger but since they are so popular now and there are so many different designs I’m getting back into it and learning the best designs (in my opinion) I’m so excited to learn
Are you saying it's trending again or am I reading too much into this specific comment 🤔
I’m so glad I watched this video. I’ve been making bracelets for almost 15 years and this tutorial finally taught me how to segment knot!!! I never thought I’d be able to understand it, but here I am. My days of reading patters row by row and getting lost, losing steam, and taking forever are over. Thanks for all your work and sharing your skill!
I have a lot of trouble finding somewhere comfortable to knot. I have a bad back, so I usually pull a chair up to a tall dresser and tape my bracelet around eye level. It also reduces tangles to have to strings dangle.
I often do my bracelets on a quite “firm“ pillow. So to secure it I just use a safety pin. That works quite well 🙃
Btw. Your channel just got recommendet to me. The 30 minute Video where you showed all your bracelets. The last two bracelets were my favorite because they gave me an Idea what I can do for my boyfriend for his birthday or Christmas or something :)
Definitely subscribed, love the videos❤
Welcome! :)
If your on the go, use that toe!! No I'm not kidding a toe works well 😂😂😂
How I should continue the pattern after teardrop loop? By the way, your tutorials are so helpful, clear, and amazing. Thank you so much 😚
Zahra Alivand if you are making some type of chevron just arrange it the way u usually go and then continue the chevron or bracelet
After you do the teardrop, the bottom comes to a point and makes a v shape. you can continue to knot down the v towards the middle (which i find easiest and the best looking) , or you could go row by row, or you can segment knot it , which she made a video on how to segment knot on her channel :)

I just found this channel and am loving it! I teach a string art class at a summer camp (friendship bracelets, kumihimo, plastic lacing, and tapestry weaving), and these are definitely going to open up my repertoire! I just started a fishbone chevron and it is going quite well. I like this teardrop loop technique as well. Concerning attaching bracelets while working on them, all of my students get a binder clip to take with them. They can then clip their projects to their backpacks, water bottles, or anything else. It is very effective and doesn't wear out like tape does. I'm also planning on making a QR code to your channel to give to my students for if they want to try out more types of bracelets at home.
I love how satisfying and easy your tutorials are to watch! I've been so curious on how to start my bracelets so this was very helpful :) Keep up the awesome content!
Like your positive vibes. Groovy
to secure your bracelets. i got a clipboard and cut little notches at the bottom just using a pair of scissors. the notches hold the strings so i can make knots without the other strings getting in the way!
Thank you so so so so much! I've been searching for those sort of tutorials for YEARS! THANK YOU ❤️
Next time just google what ur looking for, took me 30 seconds. Years is a lot of wasted life ☹️
I recently “rediscovered” making friendship bracelets when I volunteered at a summer camp…needless to say, I’m just as I seeded now as I was back in Middle school lol thank you for all of your videos! They’ve been greatly helpful as I’m learning many many new things :)
me too lol, i volunteered last month and kids were making braceletes and i was like oh wow i need to make this a hobby
🙂 awesome sauce
I’ve been making bracelets for quite some time now. I usually just start out with braids or the simple loop. It wasn’t until recently I’ve come across this as a way to start bracelets. This is by far the most helpful video I’ve come across! I usually only do forward knots and even though I’ve secured my bracelet it some how kept going into a staircase pattern. I never thought of doing forward backwards and I think that might help me! Thank you for always making such informative and helpful videos! 💘
I'm glad I could help!
Your instructions were very clear, thank you, usually I don't understand it, but your instructions were very clear, thank you
Wow this is the best video for this❤️ esp when you arranged the knots in the color you need it. I always get a weird gap at the beginning but I don’t anymore doing this method!
Thigh gap? Try tying it to your toe seems to be the popular way to address that
5:26- I use my old piggy banks crown 😂😂😂
😂
Ella Rian 😂
😂 whaaat???
lm laughing so hard rn lol 😂
I’ve been making these since I was 8 or so, and this is an entire new part of bracelet making that I never knew about! Thank you’
Welcome! :)
Can we just talk about how beautiful her braclets and
Oh! This is much easier than the other method to make this that I've seen previously, thanks. Also, I secure my bracelets by sticking the loop through the handle of my drawer and putting a pen through the loop so it stays there.
How many ways are there to tie the same knot to make the same pattern? Asking for a friend 🧐
YOUR VIDEOS ARE SOOOO HELPFUL!!!!!!
Mostly everything was clear! 💞 The only part I didn't get was at 11:52 🤔 but other than that this was a great video and I think you're underrated 😁
Audrey-ana Tent-chip At 11:52 you could continue doing the V shape but every row will have one less knot to do because you are stopping at the row with the last orange knot to make it horizontal. After it’s horizontal you can knot row by row.
Blogilates Gal what knot do we take out from the pattern
yeah I was confused about that too, but Blogilates Gal's comment helped me
It looks like a mosaic - sooo pretty. I love your videos thank you for making them
Pulling out the fancy words for this quality tute. Noyce
So satisfying to watch... the twisted thread is my favorite string to work with.. embroidery floss is okay but not the best. I love that bracelet Masha! Great video..👍🏻
time to up my bracelet making game!! thank you so much!
Wow. I wish I knew this years ago! Fantastic tutorial
i thought this was so difficult but its actually the opposite! lol i love your channel, I've recently gotten back into making bracelets and your vids are so helpful! :D
I secure mine using a clipboard if that helps :3
I use a pin and pin it to my pillow and lie in bed while making bracelets. I love you vids so much they are so helpful
I'm really happy I found your channel! I was insecure to try it at first but, I follow your steps..and worked really good! Many many thanks!!! :")
Glad I could help!
I started making these bracelets in the 80s and was taught to make a knot at the top then put on a safety pin and pin it to a pillow then put the pillow on my lap. You could pin it to anything.
I LOVE YOUUU!!!! This one single video helped me understand everythin. I wasnt expecting that 😲😲❤❤❤❤❤
i had no idea forward backward knots and backward forward knots existed until i started watching you
I just made my first teardrop loop by following your video and I am so proud of myself!
I am also proud of you. Stay safe and god bless
thank you for this! I was pretty scared to start trying out different loops but this video was super helpful!
Don't be scared it's just some strings and a few knots, it wont hurt ya 🙂
when I do my bracelets I really like using a "Iloom" witch is a string holder with foam indents to put the string in them and it come with a app to help you making the bracelets but I prefer using patterns online :) the machine itself helps a lot to make the bracelets perfectly straight witch is perfect for me! also great video im obsessed with your bracelets😍😍❤️❤️
Oh my GOSH thank you. I’ve been trying to figure this out forever
This was so helpful! Thank you!
I use the loop idea similar to yours but I never used the triangle idea!! It looks so cool thanks for sharing! And by the way from my experience you can still use an odd number of strings.
Something I've learned from watching fingerloop braiding videos is to screw a hook or hammer a small nail into a board. You can then hook you project onto the hook/nail and work from there. It gives you freedom to rotate left and right and you can easily slip your bracelet off at any time to check it.
My question is how much extra is some extra? Like how much longer do you typically make the teardrop string? A quarter meter, a meter, more?
I think she said it was about 15 centimeters somewhere, but I don't know for sure
Perfect tutorial, very easy to follow
This video is the best..helped me so much since i am still beginner in this bracelet..definitely will subscribe and look up for you upcoming videos..😍😍
Happy I helped! And welcome :)
That is genius!!! I'm a bracelet maker as well...totally going to steal this idea💕
Not my idea anyway haha, I'm just passing on the knowledge :)
This tutorial is so helpful I understood everything clearly!
I have wanted to try this for so long! Every video I've seen or pic I've looked up are confusing. I feel like they don't give enough detail. After watching this I think I'm ready to give it a try! Your video is awesome!!
this is super helpful i’m so happy i found ur channel!
I just found this channel and I'm HERE FOR IT! I want to make that little dinosaur flag (?) Do you have a video?
i just wanna say thank you for being such an inspiration! also this video was very helpful.
I hiiiighly suggest a bulletproof clipboard. They're heavy, so great for tension, and the clasps hold your bracelet super tight. I literally can't live without mine. It's also impossible to break it. So... Yeah. It's an amazing investment.
this double color loop is so nice! and the tutorial is realy helpful thanks!
She's not ignoring you apparently you're just irrelevant or she died, not sure which 😎
You are SO talented. I am going to try this one with a group of friends :D Thank You.
Have fun!
Thank you so much for that knowledge on the tear drop! I've been doing that but couldn't quite get the string positions right unless I just did a classic chevron! Can't wait to try on other patterns :)
Glad I could help! :)
You can also secure the brackets on a waterbottle or something like that.
This tutorial helped me a lot!! I’m starting doing big bracelets and this is really helpful thank you so much ❤
Hi Masha!
I secure mi bracelets with a clipboard, but before I used strong'n big clippers, one of them smaller, and the bigger one clipped on to a table... perfect 🔥
I love this. ❤️ thank you so much. The loop is something I have never thought of. Amazing. I am a braclet junkie lol 😆 so are my kids
Do they have a rehab for that? I couldn't even imagine detoxing from this type of addiction
This is a late comment but I’ve just discovered your channel and it’s been so helpful :)
I secure my bracelets either using a binder clip or (I’m going to try to explain this bear with me) a cardboard thingy which on the top has two cuts to put the loop or braids around and on the bottom has many many cuts/slits for organizing the threads. It’s a little longer than a complete bracelet length and it’s really convenient because I don’t need to secure that to anything else. Sorry that was long and probably confusing 😅
Thanks again for all your videos, it really is a whole new world of bracelet making
I use a piece of cardboard with slits cut in it. If the bracelet starts with a loop, then I just slip a short length of string through it, knot it, and slide that into the cardboard slit at the top. The knot keeps it from pulling through. Then I can keep all my strings in order by using the many bottom and side slits.
I use a binder clip and clip the loop onto a notebook thank you for the tutorial it was so good :)
Love the video! I’ve been looking for something like this for years!! Thank you so much for sharing! Love the accent btw :)
Haha thanks! I'm glad I helped :)
I use i-loom it's actually great you can sit down and make your braclets and also get pattens
I found that I-loom didn’t have that many patterns and they didn’t have any alpha patterns. I found better patterns on Pinterest and UA-cam.
a clipboard works so good to hold it in place!
I’m relatively new to bracelet making. I was wondering what the measurements for the regular strings and the main string are. thanks 💗
2m for normal string and 2m 15cm for extra. These are estimates though, it really varies
I do my arm span
To secure my bracelets, I use a command hook.
that's a really smart idea, i duct tape mine to my string box :)
I used to use a safety pin and would attatch it to my jeans or a scarf that i would wrap around my leg or through the back spokes of a kitchen chair if i didn't want to make holes in my clothes
I tie it onto my shoe loop and basically sit crisscross and just tie knots for hours on end. It’s always funny when people ask how my back doesn’t hurt from it😂😂
I usually use a clipboard, but a lot of the clips that clipboards have, I find just aren’t strong enough, or versatile enough for me, so I typically flip it and use binder clips. I can move the binder clip at different angles and it clamps down pretty hard. But this hurts my back because clipboards are smaller and it’s difficult to use on a flat top unless you put weights on it. So I end up leaning over it a lot. But, I’m going to be getting a macrame board (which is much bigger) and using pins to hold the bracelet down to see how it works.
Could you show how you continue making the bracelet after making the loop
Also I secure mine by using a metal clip and the box I keep all my strings in, before I used a clipboard but eventually it stopped working for me.
It should be nice if you put the measurements of the strings and also do a few rows. Great bracelets!!
Strings are usually about 1 meter :) But I'll try to put measurements on future videos
@@MashaKnots How many inches is 1 meter?
@@c.catlover4080 around 39-40 inches if that helps 😊😊
@@dannytries That does help. Thank you very much!
Masha Knots should the string be 1 meter after folding it or 1 meter before folding it?
Thank you for sharing this technique !
I just use a clipboard for all my bracelets 😂😂 i used to just tape them to my desk tho. If im making them in public i usually loop them onto my bag or shoe or something 😂
I use a bunch of left over threads from an old bracelet and hook them around the start of the loop and then pinch the loose ends together under the clipboard. It works pretty well for me but idk if I explained it very well
omg the most useful video thanks
My baby sitter in the early 2000s use to safety pin her bracelet to her jeans while she worked on it, I find I tug too hard for this sort of thing or just had a crappy safety pin lol but I think everyone should give it a try, might be your new favorite way!
To secure bracelets I always cut out a rectangle of cardboard, cut a slit at the top, than as many as I need at the bottom. Then I stick the top of the bracelet in the top slit and arrange the other strings in the bottom ones
this was a perfect video, it explained everything so i could actually follow along and understand it so than you !!
I find that using a macrame board&pins help to secure the bracelets very well. You can get them quite cheap on ebay or amazon
Omg that bracelet is so niceee. Great work and thx for the tutorial
I use a binder clip to secure my bracelet! I clip the binder clip onto a book or notebook.
Your tutorials are very understanding too... thanks you Masha Knots ☺️
Hey masha can you do the loop and triangle on all big thick bracelets? Just like the one in this video. I tried doing the double arrow pattern with the loop and triangle start and idk if I was doing it right...
It is difficult because there is not much information about friendship bracelets in Korea.
It was helpful. thank you♡
I'm so glad I found you and your videos!!!
Welcome! :)
They make “macrame boards” with long needles that have notches so you can separate out individual strings! I found a vintage one that had never been used at a thrift store for super cheap!
So, when you do the triangle shape after the teardrop, do you continue the pattern as normal? I mean, you continue the row that follow the triangle shape, is that right? I want to do this teardrop shape on my bracelets but it's confusing for me how to continue after making the V shape :(
Cyb3rgirl You could continue doing the V shape but every row will have one less knot to do because you are stopping at the row with the orange knot to make it straight.
@@xXcraftlovinggalXx but if u continue doing the v shape like working from the side into the middle, isn't that gonna change the pattern of ur bracelet?
I use document clip to clip the bracelet down to note book. It works perfectly. Thank you for your video 😊
What a great instruction..big thank u❤️
I’m kinda confused after you do the teardrop effect thing then where do you start the bracelet off
I am new two patern bracelets and I hav efound your channel. It’s really helpful and I know this video was posted a year ago but where do you buy this type of thread?
I got mine at Micheal's but you can get it anywhere really. Search for embroidery floss or craft thread
U probably won’t answer but what do u after the loop. Do u do It straight down like normal or what?? Love ur vids
I use what I call a bracelet broad. So it is a piece of wood that has nails in it to loop around and you can clip a binder clip to it and do it that way too.
I learned by using safety pins to hold them down, and we would pin them to the floor carpet, our jeans, back of the car seat for long travels. Clip board is good but they can slip out
I secure the very simple loop with my pop socket on my phone case. For teardrop loops I use the safety pin method
You can secure bracelets with a clipboard but if you don't have one, just put your bracelet under a butterfly clip to a solid surface like a binder or cardboard.
