A easy yarn bracelet How-To. I used Red Heart Kids yarn in Sherbert. Also a coat hanger with the metal clamps makes for an easy weaving tool!

You Will Need (3 things)
- Yarn
- Scissors
- Coat Hanger
Steps (15 steps, 20 minutes)
-
1
Cut your string. You'll want 3 pieces a bit longer than you want the bracelet and one piece maybe 4-5 times longer. The 3 pieces I'll call the base strings. The other piece will be the weaving string.
-
2
Tie the base strings together at one end and make sure you leave a nice amount on the non-weaving side. You'll need it later down the road.
-
3
Take your weaving string and fold it in two. Take the looped end and make a knot in it.
-
4
Tie it to the bottom of the base string's knot.
-
5
Hook your bracelet into a hanger with clips. I find this the easier way to do it. Let the clip clamp onto the big knot.
-
6
I hook the hanger to my toe to weave. Take the base strings and hold them between your fingers. Use the other hand for the weaving string.
-
7
Weave the weaving string in and out through the base strings.
-
8
After so long push the weaved string to the top of the base strings.
-
9
Tighten the pushed string around the base strings.
-
10
Continue these weaving steps until you are at the end of the bracelet.
-
11
Knot the loose end.
-
12
You'll also want to knot the weaving string or else it's come undone. I like to do it at the base of the closing knot and triple knot it.
-
13
Now on one end you will take that extra yarn that's hanging and make a loop of it followed by a knot.
-
14
Pull the other end of loose strings through the loop and place it on your arm for measurement.
-
15
Knot up the loose ends to finish your bracelet. Trim off any extra yarn.
