Pattern:
Bracelet
Make a slip knot, leaving a 5 inch tail.
Ch 3
Insert hook into the second ch from the hook
YO and pull a loop through
Insert hook into the next ch
YO and pull a loop through. There should be 3 loops on the hook at this point.
*CAREFULLY remove the hook from the first two loops, making sure that they do not unravel
YO and pull a loop through the loop on your hook.
Insert hook back into the middle loop, YO and pull up a loop.
Insert your hook back into the last dropped loop, YO and pull up a loop. There should be 3 loops on your hook at this point.
Rep from * until the cord matches the desired length to match wrist size.
To fasten off, YO and pull a loop through all three loops on the hook, cut yarn (leaving a 5 inch tail), YO again and pull end through the loop.
Adjustable Knot
Place the bracelet with both tails facing away from you.
Starting with one tail, work as if you are making a knot as close as possible to the end of the icord, but do not pull tight. Rep with the other tail.
Take the end of one tail and feed it through the loose knot of the other tail. Rep with the other tail.
Pull the knots tight, making sure that the knots end up as close to the icord as possible.
With the bracelet pulled as loose as needed to fit over hand, tie another set of knots just on the tails on each side, close to the first set of knots
Cut any excess yarn, leaving about ¼ inch past the second set of knots
To tighten, pull on tails. To loosen, pull on ends of icord.
And we have a bracelet!
