From what weave baubles

Materials - a great variety. The most popular of them are floss threads and beads. With the first, as a rule, problems do not arise, the main thing is that they are strong and have bright colors. But it is very difficult to find a good bead. For straight weaving, smooth beads are needed, well polished, and it is rather difficult to find them.

How to weave braves with straight weaving

Looking at the amazing beauty of the bracelets, it seems that it is almost impossible to make them. However, it is not. The only thing that is required is diligence, and also time. The technique, which you now learn, is available to everyone, because how to weave braces with straight wicker is easy!

To begin with, you need to decide what you want to catch: baubles with drawings or with a name. The first weave is slightly more difficult, especially if more than two colors are involved. In addition, for this method is more suitable oblique weave. A huge number of schemes will allow you to create many original bracelets.

For the baubles with names, the finished scheme is not at all necessary - you can draw it yourself. To do this, take the paper in a cage and, deciding for yourself what width your bracelet will be, begin to draw. The optimal height of the letters is 9 thread knots (which means - the cells on the diagram). Do not forget about the indentations - 2 cells on each side.

Let the background be black and the letters red. Proceeding from this, take 13 red threads (9 + 2 + 2) in length in meter and one black - as long as possible. Optimum - 2.5 meters, however, then you still have to add.

Fold the strands together and, having retreated from the edge of 10 cm, tie them up at once to the knot. Tighten it more tightly. A small ten-centimetric tail should be glued to the table with adhesive tape.

Take the black thread and make a knot around the red one. How?

Step 1. "Put the black thread on top of the red one.

Step 2. Insert the black thread from below into the formed loop.

Step 3. Make a knot by pulling on the black thread (it should like to slide along the red thread).

Done? And now repeat. That is, two black knots on the red string should turn out. Then do the same with all the other threads until you finish the row.

After that, start the second row, only now in the opposite direction. The thread that was braided last, now braid the first. The one that last but one is the second. And so on.

After 10 rows begin to weave a name. The bottom line is that, looking at the diagram, in the 11th row the first two threads should be braided, as they did before. But after this, on the contrary - make two red nodules on a black string. The main thing is to look at the diagram and not to confuse anything. Unsuccessful nodules can be dissolved with a pin.

When you're done, tie a knot from all the threads. And after that, both ends of the bracelets are plaited in pigtails. Done!
