Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

These instructions will give you a bracelet that fits a 6 inch wrist. To adjust the size please adjust the length of cord accordingly. You will also need a small piece of tape for this project.
  1. Cut a length of cord 6 feet long.
  2. 18 inches from one end, make a fold so that you have 18 inches on one side and 4 1/2 feet on the other side.
  3. Tie an overhand knot, creating a loop.
  4. Place the loop in the Mini Macrame Board, and place the short end of the cord into the bottom notch.
  5. To the longer end of the cord, place a small piece of tape on the end to create a "needle" to thread on the jump rings.
  6. Thread on the closed jump rings to the longer cord and tie a loose overhand knot to the end to keep them from slipping off.
  7. For this next step please watch the video: How to Use Closed Jump Rings in Macrame Half Hitch Spiral Knots.
  8. You will knot until you have 6 1/2 inches of knotting.
  9. When you have your desired length, put both cords together and make an overhand knot, tying both ends together. Move about a 1/2 inch from the knot and snip off the excess cord.
  10. All done!
