Introduction
Today you will learn how to make the laced paracord bracelet.
it looks like this :
Materials
--> paracord, i'd say 20-30 inches depending on the size of your wrist (take the color you want, that's what makes the bracelet look different each time)
--> another kind of string, it should be long, I make it from the tip of my finger to my other shoulder 2 times (you can use what you want, I used waxed string or hemp cord or even bamboo string but here again vary on the type of string and the size)
--> a clipboard or whatever you use to hold your bracelets
--> a lighter to burn/melt the ends of the paracord
Step by Step
Step 1
fold your paracord (I will call it string A) in 2 (that will make a buckle)
Step 2
find the middle of your small string (I will call it string B) and make a simple knot over the 2 strings of paracord. Flip the bracelet on the other side (so the knot is behing the bracelet.)
Step 3
take the right String B and make a Fk/bk in the right String A.
Step 4
take the left String B and make a Bk/Fk on the left String A.
then it should look like this :
** there is an other way to start, but i don't know how to explain, so here is a picture**
Step 5
the two B strings will want to switch side, that's normal! so switch them : the right goes left and the left goes right. That will form the X.
Step 6
restart step 3 to 5 until the end.
Step 7
end with a square knot the tie the B strings together and cut them.
Step 8
do an overhand knot on both paracord ends and burn the ends.
*** Play with the tension of your knotting, that will make the bracelet looks very different if you tie super tight, as you see here with the pink and the blue. ***
