Add beautiful glass connectors and make macrame bracelets with 2 different ways!
First cut out your cord in 2 pieces of 1m each and 2 pieces of 20 cm each. Let's start by making the "spiral" bracelet. Take your 20 cm piece and thread it through the one side of the connector. Next, take your 1m piece and and tie a knot in the middle. Now you have 2 cords one to the left, one to the right.
Take the right cord and slide it under the middle cords and over the left cord.
Now take your left cord and slide it over the middle cords and then under the left cord and tie a knot.
Here's what that knot will look like.
Repeat those steps until you make one side of the bracelet. Το finish it off cut the ends and burn them so they melt and stich in place. Then make the other side. As you tie the knots a spiral will be created. This is what it will look like.
Now on to the second method. For this method steps 1,2,3,4 are the same as the first one. The difference is that now you don't repeat the same step over and over! Instead, after tying the first knot, slide the left cord under middle cords and over right cord and right cord over middle cords and under left cord.
Tie the knot and this is what it will look like with 2 knots.
Tie knots on each side alternately until you reach desired length. Repeat for the other side of the bracelet . Instead of a clasp, make your bracelets adjustable using one more small piece of cord and the second method. Just bring the 2 ends together and tie the knots on both ends.
Wear them and be happy!
