HOLLOW HEARTS PATTERN INSTRUCTIONS:

For this pattern you will need two colors.
Cut yourself four 65" (inch) long strands, two of each color.

For this tutorial I'll be using 1-white and 2-black.

Set the strings as follows: 2 1 2 1 (middle) 1 2 1 2


Which ever string is in the R1 and L1 positions will become the heart color.

(If you wanted to do white hearts on a black background
then the white strings would be in L1 and R1's positions)

ANY two colors can be used for this bracelet. Get creative!

____________________________________________

KNOTTING INSTRUCTIONS:

1.) Using L1 make 3FK
then with R1 make 3BK
Join the middle

2.) Repeat step 1 once again.

3.) Using L2 make 1BK
With R2 make 1FK

4.) Pick up L2 and make 2FK
Then with R2 make 2BK
Join the middle

5.) With L2 make 1BK
Then with R2 make 1FK

6.) L2 make 2FK
R2 make 2BK
Join the middle

* Repeat from step 1 to achieve pattern

____________________________________________

**PROTIP** If your strings are getting too short improvise by making a BK/FK or FK/BK (depending on which direction your strings are heading) with the strand that is too short over the longer strand. When you cross over one of the same color you're working with It won't affect your pattern since they are identical- just swap their places and viola more string to work with!

Which of you bracelets would you recommend doing with an 8 year old? I'm a Big for Big Brother Big Sister and I'm always looking for ideas to do with my little. Any suggestions? P.S. I subscribed because I really enjoy your videos I just found them yesterday;)

[BeyondBracelets]

@S8T8A8R On my channel (at the very top) I have a "Start Here" button- it will lead you to a page that has the videos I deem most beneficial to beginners in "easiest" to "progressing" order.

[S8T8A8R]

I really found you video very helpful I'm adding it to my favorites;)

[BeyondBracelets]

@S8T8A8R Awesome, glad it was helpful to you.

[BeyondBracelets]

@sewinghorse That's just a thin piece of office paper that I stick tape to (on the back) so it will stick.
