🧵 The satin cord (3 × 40 cm) was taken with extra length for the video.
You can use shorter cords for this bracelet — for example, 25 cm each — to avoid too many leftover pieces. This should still be enough for bracelets around 14–18 cm.
📏 The rings and the plain “beginning” and “end” sections of the bracelet take up about 1 cm on each side. Keep this in mind when adjusting the bracelet to your own size.
🎨 The pattern itself is made with nylon cord.
For every 1 cm of pattern, you’ll need about 11-12 cm of each cord, so you can calculate the length based on your bracelet size.
Example:
An 18 cm wrist size = about 16 cm of pattern + 2 cm for the clasp area.
⚠ Also keep in mind that cords can vary in thickness and texture, so the measurements may turn out slightly different. That’s why I always recommend taking a little extra cord just in case.
💡 Extra tip:
You can attach an extender chain to the second ring to make the bracelet more adjustable and universal in size.
