HELP! does anybody know how to make these or what these are called? by cbrucey 13 years ago

The first design is a tube bracelet I believe which you can find how to make here: https://www.friendship-bracelets.net/tutorial.php?id=148 instead of using the stripe you can do it with any rag rug pattern possibly #7462

The 2nd one is a wrap style bracelet very similar to hair wrap which can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6EJobdJJ6Q

The only difference between the one in the vid and the picture is you have 2 separate strings that wrap around afterwards hence how you get the "wave" effect on top of the stripes. to get the 3 coloured stripes like in the photo instead of wrapping the first one with 1 colour you use 3 and wrap it all the way round then pull them tight before using the other strings to do the outside. if this is confusing I'll try and make a tutorial on it if you want.

Hope that's of some help anyway :)
