MATERIAL: Six Stranded Embroidery Floss (DMC Brand)
PATTERN INFO:
This is just a simple candy stripe.
You will need 4 colors cut about 20\\\" (inches) long for practicing purposes.
If you are more advanced make sure you cut your strings about 55\\\" (inches) long (and then folded to form a loop) so you have enough string to make a complete bracelet with ties. Remember, you can also double up on colors to make a thicker stripe.
Just set them up as 1 2 3 4 (or 11 2 33 2 for the thumbnail) and starting with the first string on the left (always) make three forward knots across the bracelet. When you get to the end pick up the new first string and repeat the forward knotting across the other three strings.
Continue forward knotting across until the desired length is achieved!

MATERIAL: Six Stranded Embroidery Floss (DMC BRAND)
PATTERN INFO:
For this you will need to know how to do both a forward AND a backward candy stripe. If you do not know how to make a candy stripe go here:
You will need 4 different strings cut 60\" (inches) long folded in half. This will leave you with 8 strings that need to be arranged.
Set them up as follows:
1 2 3 4 (middle) 4 3 2 1
Just look at this bracelet as two individual candy stripes. The one on the left needs to be forward knots, the one on the right needs backward knots then you just join the middle after completing the left and right \"candystripe\" bases.
Enjoy!
TIP: To make thicker stripes you need to have two of the same color beside one another. 1=Red 2=Blue Set them up as follows: 1 1 2 2 (middle) 2 2 1 1

Tutorial 03 - Friendship Bracelet - Beginner - The Zig-Zag (flip-flop bracelet) English

MATERIAL: Six Stranded Embroidery Floss (DMC BRAND)
INSTRUCTIONS:
You will need 65\" (inches) of string if doubling the strings, 35\" (inches) if you\'re using individual colors.
Basically you just need to make a bunch of forward knots from left to right and then when you want to reverse just start making backward knots from right to left.
It\'s a very simple bracelet and can be done with as many strings as you want!
NOTE: I realized after I had completed this video that the girl who requested it actually asked for the FLIP-FLOP zig-zag pattern- so I need to re-do this and go get the flip-flop done.
That\'s not an issue, though. I\'m sure there was someone out there that was wondering how to do the plain zig-zag bracelets so I am going to post the video anyway!
So yeah, I\'m off to make the flip-flop version. If that\'s the one you want just click the annotation at the end of the video and it will take you right to the pattern! Thanks for watching!
