[Nfb-krafters-korner] friendship bracelet pattern link

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Usually for friendship bracelets you fold the strands in half creating a  
loop and tie a knot then proceed from there with your bracelet.  The loop  
you create is part of your closure. Then on the other end you use a larger 
bead  to put the ends thru and tie another knot to secure the bead.  Now you 
put  the bead thru the loop and you have a closure.  Remember you need that  
first loop to fit the bead thru it so don't make it too big or too small.   
You don't even have to use a larger bead you can use a knot.  I like to use  
a thin leather that they have in colors and then you leave a friendship 
bracelet  on as friends are forever.  So when you bathe it does shrink and relax 
 .  I love to wear one on my ankle.

Hi  Lindy,

This pattern is very easy to understand. Thanks. The only thing  that 
puzzles
me is that if you knot it on your wrist, I would think it  would be 
difficult
to remove? Anyone have an alternative for a bracelet  closure? I will be
trying it with yarn first, so I cannot use jewelry  findings.

Cathy
