Double Chain Knot Tutorial

This bracelet is really cute and looks great if you use colors that really contrast each other. It also looks great with a larger bracelet.

Supplies 
Two colors of embroidery floss(three of each color)
I'll be using red and blue for this tutorial.

Step 1
Tie an overhand knot at the top(leave enough string so you can tie the bracelet!) and set your strings up so that the red strings are in a group and the blue strings are in a group. The red strings need to be on the left and the blue strings on the right.

Step 2
Take your red strings and tie a single fk over the blue strings.(make sure you only make half the knot)

Step 3 
Take you blue strings and tie a single bk over the red strings.(make sure you only make half the knot.)

Step 4 
Continue steps 2 and 3 until your bracelet is the right legnth. 

Step 5 
Tie an overhand at the end and you are done!




note: as you tie this bracelet, the red strings should always remain on the left and the blue strings always on the right. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial!
