Introduction

This bracelet came about when I was trying to make the Zolino Bracelet and made a mistake. For the purposes of this tutorial I have used 14 strings however I have also made one with 12 strings and I prefer this amount. In the tutorial I have used 7 different colours but for the 12 string bracelet I only used 5 dfferent colours so colour choice and combination is up to your imagination.

Materials and Set Up

To set up your bracelet you will need 7 different colours (I used purple, yellow, blue, white, pink, green and lilac) - 2 strings each. Cut each string about 1 metre in length.
Place the strings in the following order:
Pu, Y, B, W, Pi, G, L, L, G, Pi, W, B, Y, Pu
or
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

Begin your bracelet in the usual way but make sure the colours are in the correct order when you come to the knotting.

Step by Step

Step 1

Start from the left side and do a forward knot over each of the next 6 strings in turn - Pu over Y, Pu over, B, Pu over W, Pu over Pi, Pu over G, Pu over L.

Step 2

Now using the Yellow string do a forward knot over the next 5 strings in turn - Y over B, Y over W, Y over Pi, Y over G, and Y over L

Step 3

Using the blue string do a forward knot over the next 4 strings in turn.
Using the white string do a forward knot over the next 3 strings in turn.
Using the pink string do a forward knot over the next 2 strings in turn.
Using the green string do a forward knot over the lilac string.

You have now finished the left hand side and it should look like this.

Step 4

Now it's time to do the right hand side.
Repeat steps 1 to 3 but starting with the right hand purple string and doing a backward knot instead of a forward knot.

Step 5

Starting from the middle, join the 2 purple strings using a forward knot. Place those strings out of the way.

Join the 2 yellow strings using a forward knot. Place those strings out of the way.

Join the 2 blue strings using a forward knot. Place those strings out of the way.
Join the 2 white strings using a forward knot. Place those strings out of the way.
Join the 2 pink strings using a forward knot. Place those strings out of the way.
Join the 2 green strings using a forward knot. Place those strings out of the way.
Join the 2 lilac strings using a forward knot.
