PATTERN INSTRUCTIONS:

You will need 6 strings folded over for this bracelet. (12 strings)
With so many strings you might want to try out making a loom.

Set up your strings as follows: 1 22 1 33 (middle) 33 1 22 1

For my bracelet I used:
1-black (Border of Diamonds)
2-gray (side triangles)
3-blue (diamonds)
**Knowing this you can now choose custom colors for yourself!**

NOTE: Make sure your strings are 65"-70" long for this bracelet.
(I'd go for 70" just to be safe! Diamonds always take a lot of string!)

STEPS:

1. 5FK w/ L1
2. 5BK w/ R1
3. Join Middles (L6+R6)

(left triangle)
4. L1 4FK & 1FK/BK
5. (new) L1 2FK & 1FK/BK
6. (NEW) L1 1FK/BK
7. L3 2BK
8. L5 4BK

(right triangle)
9. R1 4BK & 1BK/FK
10. (new) R1 2BK & 1BK/FK
11. (NEW) R1 1BK/FK
12. R3 2FK
13. R5 4FK

14. Join Middles (L6+R6)
15. L6 4BK & 1BK/FK
16. R6 4FK & 1FK/BK

17. Join Middle (L6+R6)
18. L6 2BK & 1BK/FK
19. R6 2FK & 1FK/BK

20. Join Middles (L6+R6)
21. L6 1BK/FK
22. R6 1FK/BK
23. Join Middles (L6+R6)

24. L4 2FK

28. R2 4BK
29. Join Middle (L6+R6)

Repeat From Step #4 For Pattern

____________________________________________

♦ PRO-TIP:

Noticing certain strings are getting too short? Quick fix short strings by switching places with a longer string of the same color. Passing over strings of the same color that are longer than the one you need to be working with means that you can easily substitute the forward or backward knot with a mixed knot so that the longer string switches places with the short string!

@BeyondBracelets When you first cut the 6 strings you fold them in half do you cut them then or..?

[BeyondBracelets]

@BookAddict73 Pull the string out (as long as I said in the description) and then cut at the length. After it's cut then fold and tie.

[MissTambourine91]

Is it wool or cotton? How big the strings are?

[BeyondBracelets]

@MissTambourine91 The strings are cotton floss. They are thin... or do you mean length? Length are in the description.
