Almost every girl is familiar with macrame bracelets with beads. This is an excellent accessory for a romantic or ethnic style of clothing. Probably everyone knows the famous macrame bracelet with beads "Shambhala." We suggest learning how to weave the simplest version of such an ornament.
Bracelet macrame: master class
Before we weave the bracelets of macrame, we will prepare all the necessary materials:
- Chinese nylon cord 0.5 mm in diameter, 3.5 meters long;
- connector;
- needle for embroidery;
- scissors.
Now let's get to work. Here is the simplest step-by-step instruction on weaving bracelets in the technique of macrame:
1. Cut the cord into parts: two lengths of 76 cm, two lengths of 50 cm and one length of 25.5 cm. Two 50-cm-long strings are folded in half and threaded into the connector. We bend the cords and pass the ends into the loop. These two cords will be fixed.
2. Now we begin the weaving of the macrame bracelets. We measure the center of the cord at 76 cm and place it under two fixed cords. Through the cords located in the middle, bend the right cord and let it through the resulting loop from the right side.
3. Tighten the knot tightly and lift it to the very top.
4. Now do the second part of the square loop. Prolong the right cord under the left and center cords, and then through the loop on the left side.
5. Tighten the nodules tightly and do these steps until we pass the required length. When you weave a bracelet of macrame, consider the fact that the clasp should be left about one and a half centimeters.
6. To complete the weaving of the bracelet macrame with a needle, sew the cord a couple of knots back from the wrong side. For convenience, you can stretch the needle with a pair of pliers.
7. Do the described steps with the second half of the bracelet macrame.
8. The fixed ends are ready and you can cut off excess threads. To the cut is not stiff, burn the ends with a lighter.
9. Now make a sliding connection. We form a bracelet in a circle and we impose one cord on the other central ones. Scraps temporarily bind them together along the edges.
10. The cord length of 25 cm is placed in the center above the fixed cords and we begin to knit already familiar knots.
11. Spray 1.5 cm. Now we hide the cords with which the knots were knotted, using a needle from the wrong side. Temporary fasteners can be removed.
12. Thus, two pairs of central shoelaces became adjustable parts for our bracelet. After fitting, cut off the excess and make knots at the ends.
13. Our bracelet is ready!
