Neon Friendship Bracelet


Is it obnoxious to make yourself a friendship bracelet? Well... I did.

I'm trying to remember to be a better friend to myself, and well-- I needed something to do with my hands during all 6 hours of "Hatfields & McCoys'".

I'd have done a tutorial (in case you didn't go to summer camp when you were ten), but Purlbee has already done such a fabulous one, I didn't bother.

To make one like mine you'll use 4 lengths of string (2 in each color) doubled over. To get the stripes follow their "Basic Stripes" instructions, left-knotting all the pink first, and then all the taupe.

To end, group the strings in 2's and twist them counter-clockwise, while wrapping them together clockwise, and knot at the end.
