    Gather the Materials

    • 1). Measure and cut two pieces of yellow thread and one piece of green thread in 65 inch lengths.

    • 2). Gather the tips of the threads together.

    • 3). Fold the threads in half and tie a knot with a one-inch loop.

    • 4). Attach the knot to the clip board and place the paper under the threads.

    • 5). Spread the threads evenly across the paper and number each thread on the paper. Place a green thread at numbers one and six. The yellow threads should be at places two through five.

    Create the Diamond Pattern

    • 1). Take thread number one and cross it over thread number two in the shape of a number "4." Pull it under string number two and back up through the loop. Pull it tightly to form a knot.

    • 2). Repeat Step 1. This is called a forward knot.

    • 3). Hold thread number one and cross it over thread number three in the shape of a number "4." Pull it under string number three and back up through the loop. Pull it tightly to form a knot. Hold thread number one and cross it over thread number three in the shape of a backward number "4." Pull it up and through the loop. Pull it tightly to form a knot. This is called a forward/backward knot.

    • 4). Hold thread number one and cross it over thread number two in the shape of a backward number "4." Pull it under string number two and back up through the loop. Pull it tightly to form a knot.

    • 5). Repeat Step 4. This is called a backward knot.

    • 6). Take thread number six and make a backward knot with thread number five.

    • 7). Hold thread number six and cross it over thread number four in the shape of a backward number "4." Pull it underneath and back up through the loop. Pull it tightly to form a knot. Hold thread number six and cross it over thread number four in the shape of a number "4." Pull it back up through the loop. Pull it tightly to form a knot. This is called a backward/forward knot.

    • 8). Hold thread number six and make a forward knot with thread number five.

    • 9). Take thread number three and make a forward knot with thread number four.

    • 10

      Take thread number three and make a backward knot with thread number two.

    • 11

      Hold thread number three and make a backward/forward knot with thread number one.

    • 12

      Take thread number four and make a forward knot with thread number five.

    • 13

      Hold thread number four and make a forward/backward knot with thread number six.

    • 14

      Take thread number three and make a forward knot with thread number four.

    • 15

      Take thread number two and make a forward knot with thread number three.

    • 16

      Take thread number five and make a backward knot with thread number four.

    • 17

      Take thread number three and make a forward knot with thread number four.

    • 18

      Repeat Steps 1 through 18 to make the bracelet until there is three inches remaining at the end of the thread.

    Finishing the Bracelet

    • 1). Separate the threads into two sets of three.

    • 2). Braid each set of threads.

    • 3). Tie a knot at the end of each braid.

    • 4). Remove the bracelet from the clipboard.

    • 5). Slide one braid through the loop and tie the braids together to fasten the bracelet.
