    Friendship bracelets are a great way to pass the time, and not only are trading them, but also teaching others how to make them is a great way to make friends. Throw a friendship bracelet sleepover party!

    Use the same 6 strings, 2+ colors. Set them symmetrically. Use the same knot as above, only do it twice over one string at a time covering each string. Repeat with the next string on L etc. Many designs are possible. Try coming in from both sides to mid!

    Train your index finger to loop through the string and bend around the loose one to bring it back up again. It's faster, easier, and less taxing on the eyes and hands.

    It's a little more expensive, but if you use double strands of embroidery floss when you make your necklaces you will find them to be be easier to work with. Your bracelets will feel a little bit fuller, the colors will stand out more boldly and it's an easy way to make a bigger bracelet without all the added work of tieing more knots.

    Some patterns that I have used tend to curl in at the edges (like the zig-zag). One simple solution to correct this problem is to iron or press the bracelet with steam. To make your bracelet more portable - double over your strings, to get a loop in the beginning. You can put a safety pin through the loop and pin it to your jeans. I have staved off many hours of car-trip boredom using this tactic!

    This is a nice quiet time project for young friends. I collected a variety of materials and bring them out when the children are together on a "boring" rainy day or for an overnight stay. They make them together for one another.
