Notes:
- Before you begin making your friendship bracelet, you should know how to make a Right Hand Double Knot, Left Hand Double Knot, Single Right Single Left Hand Knot and Single Left Single Right Hand Knot. You can see these instructions at myfbm.com.
- These instructions teach you how to complete the pattern using My Friendship Bracelet Maker. However, the pattern can be completed without the loom as well.
Instructions:
- Pick 2 different colors. (The example uses dark blue & white – light blue could also be substituted in place of the dark blue). You will need 4 strands of blue & 3 strands of white.
- Align string, fold in half, and tie knot ½ inch from fold forming a loop.
- Attach your ½ inch loop to MYFBM under the butterfly clip.
- This pattern uses 12 strings which is exceeds the amount of slots that the MYFBM holds. You will have one loose string on each end. The string hanging loose on the left hand side will be referred to as string #0. The other loose string hanging on the right will be referred to as string #11. Separate strings by placing one string per slot. Note: Use the same color in slots 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 & 11 (blue) & slots 1, 3, 5, 7 & 9 (white). You will need to cut the one extra blue string & one extra white string close to your knot. This will align the strings of your bracelet pattern.
