i've been requested to make a video on how i make my hemp bracelets so i have some stuff ready here and i'm going to show you so here's the bracelet ready to go so i'll show you how to do this knot i have an orange string ready you fold it in half line up those two ends and then find the center then you're going to want to measure this earth as best as you can for the length of the bracelet i can usually eyeball it but go a little bit longer than what you think you need so you have room to make the knot and then you're just going to do like a slip knot and then pull that through and you don't need this hoop to be very big at all it can be small so that's what you're going to start with i decided to do a purple one here and i put some star beads on you just put them on the middle string and i just have a safety pin to a pillow here so we're just going to do a flat one i find they sit better on your wrist than the twisted one if you want the video about twisted ones let me know so first you're just gonna start by making a four with the left string so you have like this triangle and it's over top of the middle strings and then you take the the right string and put it under everything and pull it up through the triangle and pull it snug you want to make sure this is fairly tight and now for the second knot now for the second one we're gonna go with this side just go back and forth so the four and the string is over top of the middle one take this and go under everything and up through the triangle and pull it snug if you have any questions or unclear about anything i'm pretty new at making videos please just leave them below it's a fairly simple bracelet and i'm using hemp cord you can really use whatever you want the bigger the bigger around your string will is will make them much bulkier i really i prefer the small small hemp and i just ordered this stuff off ebay fairly cheap you get a nice size roll like this big has lots of string on it i sometimes count to put a certain amount before and like in between beads really you can do whatever you want so right now we have two four six eight ten if i am counting i do like to go in tens pull a bead up and then just do the next knot right around it you want to do these fairly tight so the beads aren't spinning around so you just have to play with the strings to get them to stay like in the middle of the sides so all right so again you make a four go under everything and up through the triangle and use the other side make it backwards for there i'm just gonna do a bunch really fast or this will just take forever mama this and if the beads do slip it's not a huge deal you can just fix it again if you want these are fairly cheap beads so some of them have like this extra plastic on it it doesn't really bother me a whole lot i still like them a lot because i like stairs hopefully this lighting is good enough i tried to look for a lamp but i could not find it if this really turns out bad i might just tape a new one once i find a lamp or buy one all right so that's as far as i'll go for right now you just undo that so now we're gonna finish it off and this is just how i like to do it take this one string and if you've made like friendship braces before this is a similar knot from that so you're going to go through the middle and then up through it and then just pull it tight and this will just help to keep the knot on there and just do the same on the other side and then i like to tie the two long ones together really really tight and then the the middle string here the one that looks like a loop we're going to cut that off and then when you go to tie it on to your wrist you just take one of the long ones and fish it through the hoops put it around your wrist and then just tie it tie a knot to however tight you want it now with hemp does loosen up after a while like what when you're when you get it wet it gets softer and kind of loose like these bracelets i made them really tight when i first put them on but they've like loosened up a little bit so now they fit just perfectly so i hope you liked this video and i hope it turned out good if you want me to do any other videos just request them down below thank you oh and subscribe i guess if you want notifications for when my videos are going to be up
