"Now that I have my sizing bracelet, I'm going to set that aside for now, and I'm going to lay out my colors of wool that I want to make my bracelet. I'm going to do several layers, but starting with the first layer. The first layer I lay down is going to be on the inside of my bracelet. So I'm going to make that out of my pink batting her because it's already nicely laid out, and arranged, all I have to do is tare off the size that I want. So in this case I'm going to get just the length of wool. It's about, it's the width of my hand across, and if I had this out straight I've got about around and a half because I want the ends to overlap. So, you want, you want it to be longer than one round of your bracelet. If that make sense, and when we wrap it all around it will overlap on the ends and it'll fit the bracelet eventually. This piece in here is going to be on the very inside it's not going to show, unless we use a technique to cut through the outer layers and have it show. It also might show a little bit on the inside, but for the most part this base color is going to be totally covered up by the other colors of wool we're going to use on the outside of the bracelet."
