How to Finish a Friendship Bracelet With a Loop

Markers of any length will work to make the bracelet loop.

Tying a friendship bracelet off with a loop is one way to make a type of clasp. The knot at the other end of the bracelet goes through the loop to hold the bracelet in place. Making a loop from the string often requires an item to keep the string's shape. A marker works well, but you can use a pencil, pen or other stick-like item you have around the house.

Things You'll Need

• Scissors
• Marker (any type)

Instructions

1. Wrap the end strings of the friendship bracelet one time around a marker. The loops need to be as close to the beaded or braided part of the bracelet as possible.

2. Tie a knot with the tail hanging from the loop.

3. Slip the marker out of the loop.

4. Cut off any extra string.
