Macrame bracelet tutorial

A while ago I made this bracelet. And as promised I finally made a little tutorial for the macrame pattern.

You need an even number of colors, 2 threads each. I used the colors white, yellow, light blue and mint.



I sorted the color in this order: white (2x), light blue (2x), mint (2x) and yellow (2x). This results into yellow-light blue and white-mint rows. Keep that in mind when deciding the order!

You only need two sorts of knots (I unfortunatelly don't know the actual names of the knots):
- 2 right knots in sequence with the same threads...



...make this final "right double knot".



- 2 left knots in sequence with the same threads...



...make this final "left double knot".



So, the bracelet pattern works like this:

1. row: Make 3 right double knots with the first color (white) showing.



Make two left double knots with the 3rd color (mint) showing.



Make 2 right double knots with the first color (white) showing.

So this is the final row:



2. row: Make 2 right double knots with the first color (white) showing. Make two left double knots with the 3rd color (mint) showing. Make 3 right double knots with the first color (white) showing.

Repeat this pattern until the bracelet is as long as you like.
Just add as many colors as you want, but it should be an even number of colors, if its uneven the same color will be side by side.



Pretty easy, right? :D
Wish you all a wonderful week! ♥
