knitted studs bracelet
I had to make a craft present for Tine, and i wanted to make so tight cool craft project. I'm addicted at the moment of knitting. so after i had knitted preston and had made his stud bracelets, i thought why could'nt this not eayer to make. I hate all those little things to make and then sewing them on the underground. and all the weaving ends=S bleugh.
so ....
this is mine solution, its so easy and quick to make!!! and with all the left over of yarn you have, So this can be your last minuted xmas gift of other days present.;-D

Because i'm dutch we use other knitting terms, so i had to learn the english one's to make a tute with the right knitting terms.
On Lion Brand i found a tute of how to learn, i did understood endly the tutes of others, so i could endly translate other tutes, as i could make a tute of my own projects.:-D

Step 5
turn around your work, you can for sure cross the yarn of the first and the seccond colour of yarn. Its not necessarry.
then you must increase of all the stiches two times, by knitting in front and back (x 3) so in the end you have 6 stiches.
turn around your work.

Step 10
Pick up the first stich of the blauw yarn (in my case) without knitting. I didn't know the englisch translation of short terms.=S

and purl the last two stiches together, and bind off the first stich over this decreased ones
you have become one stich,
Step 11
cross the two colours of yarn and pick up your first colour and knit this stich with the first colour of yarn, and knit the rest of the stiches.
Step 12
Now you have made your first fake stud! hoeray!

You must knit again with the first colour yarn 6 needles and repeat the story again and again, till you have become the right measure.

Attention: knitting is strechy , so you must make this bracelet tight. it will become more roomier!!!
Step 13
For the last part you knit instead of 6 needles you knit 8 needles, and cast off Again if you can' t see and learn for this skill on Braind Lion
