Material
12" strips of suede (8pcs)
1" ribbon end (2pcs)
jump rings
lobster hook
Method
Crossing means going under if the one next to it is over, over if it's under.
1. Arrange the strips in the colour sequence of your choice. I used a hair clip to hold everything in place.
2. Clamp on a ribbon end.
3. Cross 5 over 4
4. Cross 3 over 5
5. Cross 6 over 4 and 3
6. Cross 2 over 5 and 6
7. Cross 7 over 4, 3 and 2
8. Cross 1 over 5, 6 and 7
9. Cross 8 over 4,3,2 and 1
10. Cross 5 over 6, 7 and 8
11. Cross 4 over 5, 1, 2 and 3
Repeat steps 10 and 11 with the rightmost and leftmost strips till desired length, cut ends and clamp. Add jump rings and lobster hook.
Have a blessed day!
ps: The finished bracelet was made from a different sequence of colours, not the one shown in the steps. The final bracelet will vary based on the colours you choose and the sequence you arrange the strips. Plain one added for your reference.
