Thread baubles were worn back in the era of hobby for the hippie movement - and continue to be worn to this day, despite the fact that hippies for the most part are a thing of the past. Bright bracelets made of threads, symbolizing joy and friendship, attract many, and are an excellent memento for friends and family, as well as an unusual piece of jewelry that matches any outfit. Learning to weave baubles is not difficult - for this you need a floss of different colors, scissors and a pin.
Instructions
Step 1
Cut eight strands of floss in different colors, four times the length of the bracelet. Tie the threads in a knot at the end and secure with a safety pin to the cushion or back of the sofa.
Step 2
Distribute the threads next to each other as the colors of the threads in the bracelet should follow one after the other. Your first working thread is on the far left. Tie a double knot with this thread on the next thread on the right.
Step 3
Continue tying all threads with double knots until your working thread is on the far right. You have woven the first row of baubles to create a row of diagonal knots. Go back to the thread that turned out to be on the far left, and repeat the above steps - tie the threads from left to right with double knots.
Step 4
After finishing the row, again go to the leftmost thread and start knitting knots. Continue braiding the bracelet until it is the desired length, then tie a knot at the end and braid to tie.
Step 5
Having mastered simple weaving with diagonal lines, you can complicate the task and try to weave a bauble with a herringbone pattern. To do this, start weaving in the usual way, but stop exactly in the middle of the baubles, and then continue to weave with the right extreme thread from right to left, making mirror knots.
Step 6
Thus, on the left you will have a diagonal line pointing in one direction, and on the right - in the other. The lines form a corner in the center of the bauble. Tie the center threads in a knot.
Step 7
Continuing to weave the bauble to the end will create a repeating herringbone bracelet.
