Super Easy Knotted Bracelet Tutorial Pt. 3

Now that we've learned about what cord/thread/yarn to use
lets move on to
the other items needed
 for this bracelet...

A focal bauble/charm/dangle...

A strong jump ring...

I use the double jump ring.
Super strong and wears very well.

Various beads...

Allot of these beads are broken jewelry left overs...

or from previous projects where there are only
a few beads left.

I also use found objects
like these glass crystals.

These beads are strung on head pins...

These are two types of head pins that come in various metals, lengths
and ends.
I prefer the long one, that way I can wrap the them tighter.
These items can be found at you local or online craft store.

Buttons!

Once you've got all your supplies together,
you'll need a neat work tray/space to keep it all together in...

Like this one...

I'll talk about tools in my next post tomorrow!

Super Easy Knotted Bracelet Tutorial Pt.2

Supplies needed to make this bracelet

If you cannot find the cotton waxed cord
then there are three other cotton threads
that can be used instead.

Patons Grace 100% Mercerized Cotton is
the same gauge.

Lion Brand's
Bon Bon's
100% cotton
might work just as well

Here is a comparison of the 4 types of cotton threads.
(From left to right)
Cotton Waxed Cord, Lizbeths 100% Mercerized Crochet/tatting cotton thread,
Patons Grace 100% mercerized cotton yarn
 and lastly Lion Brand's Bon Bons (in green)

A closer look at the four types of cord/thread/yarn that can be
used for this project.

Super Easy Knotted Bracelet Tutorial Pt.1

I made this super simple
waxed cotton cord
knotted bracelet
in about an hour.

A few items on this
are either found objects or repurposed jewelry parts.

Button was on a sweater that
I cut up for a 'wool-felting' project.

Waxed cotton cord can be found at craft stores...

in various colours...

however, the gauge will be mostly the same.
Unless you go to a bead shop that has a quality line of
cords.
