Step 1
Begin by tying a Bracelet Loop with green and gray cords, then pull the loop tight.
Step 2
Bring the right green strand under the gray core strand, over the green core strand, and then under the left strand.
Step 3
Bring the left gray strand under the green core strand, over the gray core strand, and out through the green loop.
Step 4
Continuing with the gray strand, wrap the cord underneath and out the green loop.
Step 5
This image shows the full path the gray strand should take.
Step 6
Pull the green and gray strands tight.
Step 7
Starting with the green strand, bring it under the green core strand and over the gray core strand, and then under the gray strand.
Step 8
Bring the gray strand under and over the core strands.
Step 9
Continuing with the gray strand, bring it around, under, and out the loop of the green strand as shown.
Step 10
Pull the left and right strands tight. Repeat steps 2 through 7, and continue tying until you’ve reached the desired length.
Step 11
Once you’ve reached the end, secure the ends by tying two half knots as if tying a Solomon Bar. Tie an Overhand Knot using the two core strands to make a button for the bracelet.
Step 12
Cut the remainder of the excess cord and melt the ends with a lighter to fi nish the bracelet.
