Step 1
-First; gather your supplies (:

1. Scissors
2. Safety Pin
3. Two colors of string

Now, cut two pieces of color #1 (black in my photos). Make them the length of the tip of your hand to your shoulder.

Cut two pieces the same length for color #2 (white in my photos).
Step 2
-Fold the pieces equally & then knot the folded side, like in the picture.

*Tip; It's easier to do the next steps if you safety pin this down.
Step 3
Now for the pattern;

-Take string #1 and lay it flat towards you. Then take string #2 and lay it over-top, making a "4" shape.
Step 4
-Next, pull the end of string #2 under string #1 & back OVER itself.

Sorry if this is not a good explination; but you should be able to figure this out with the pictures.
Step 5
- To finish this knot, hold string #1 tight, straight out, towards you. Then pull string #2 up towards the safetey pin, until it is tight.
Step 6
-Repeat steps 3-5 again; But this time switch the strings.
Step 7
-Continue switching back and forth until it is long enough...
Step 8
Once your bracelet is the desired length;

-Separate the strings equally into two groups. Braid one group & knot the ends. Then, braid the other and knot the ends.

******Yes, I am aware that there are four strings in each group. While braiding only uses three. So, to fix this, all you have to do is use two strings as one while braiding.
Step 9
Once both sides are braided & knotted, your bracelet is finished (:
Step 10
TO WEAR;

Lay your wrist on the bracelet. Pull one braid through the loop and tie to the other braid.
