Knit Yourself A Bracelet… Because Knitting is Cool!

This one is for all the knitters out there (or those who are willing to learn). This bracelet is a knitted I-cord, made using a pair of double pointed needles and some yarn or thread of your choice.

You will need the following tools and materials:

1: Scissors

2: Two double pointed needles.

3: yarn of your choice. I used some natural colored twine and some beaded thread.

The Steps:

1: Hold both strands together and knot the end to create a loop.

2: Slide the loop over the end of one needle and pull it tight by pulling on the short end.

3: Slide the other needle into the back of the loop.

4: Loop the long end of the thread around the back needle, placing it between each needle.

5: Pull the back needle to the front, keeping the thread looped around it. Then move this loop back onto the first needle. Repeat this until you have three stitches on the first needle.

6: To start the next row, slide the stitches to the other end of the needle and flip it around. Start knitting all stitches, flipping the needle at the end of each row.

7: Continue knitting until the cord is long enough to fit around your wrist.

8: Once you have reached your desired length, cast off your stitches as follows.

9: Cut your thread and then loop that short end back through the final loop. Secure with a final knot at each end.
