- For the first bangle of red and cream, the pattern is 1 column of cream, 3 columns of red and 1 column of cream. Continue this pattern for the length of the bangle. You can test the length as you work. Just make sure the rows line up for the seamless join.
- Once you have your length, create the seamless join by following a similar technique as shown in this video. For security, place a very fine strip of glue into the center of the channel of the bangle using a toothpick. Then lay the strip into the channel. Make the seamless join as seen in the video. Then tie off and weave in your threads.
- For the second bangle, it will be five columns wide. Begin with green. You will weave 33 rows of green, followed by 31 rows of orange, 33 rows of green and 31 rows of orange. Repeat the above process for a seamless join.
- The slim bangle is decorative to complete the look of this bangle set. So stack them up and you are all done!
