This kind of bracelets is popular first among schoolgirls, but this technique can also be used for the decoration of adult things. There are several techniques of how to weave bracelets from ribbons. The essence of the most popular is as follows. You need to take two thin ribbons about one meter in length and make sure to cut the slices so that they do not crumble. It is advisable to leave the ends of both ribbons free so that you can then tie them to a bow. You can make it so that the string is from one tape - then the other should be a little shorter and start from the place where the weaving is started. Fold the tape in half. Next, the weave starts from the folds as follows: one of them (let it be white) wraps around the second (for example, black). A black "eyelet" is passed through the remaining white loop, and the resulting bundle is tightened, but not too tight for the white tip to leave. A new loop from the white ribbon is passed through the black tail, and so on until a bracelet of the necessary length is obtained.
