Today we’re doing something a little different. Instead of starting from scratch, we’re taking a pattern I already made — Pattern #1207 from friendship-bracelets.net — and experimenting with the colors. Originally, this bracelet was designed as a two-color pattern, but when I studied the string …

Today we’re experimenting with Pattern #1207 from friendship-bracelets.net, and right away something interesting shows up. At first glance it looks like a simple two-color bracelet, but once you start tracing the paths of the strings, it becomes clear there’s a lot more going on. The …

What happens if you mirror the shadows in friendship bracelet Pattern #27? 🤔 In this video, I experiment with flipping the pattern to create a radiating diamond illusion, where the light appears to shine from the center of the bracelet. The result could turn into …

Today’s bracelet design challenge started with a simple problem: I had kumis already made with 18 strings, and I needed to find a pattern that would actually use them. So I went digging and found a much more complex pattern than the last one we …

Sometimes mistakes turn into new bracelet ideas. In a previous project, I accidentally cut more strings than I needed and they were already turned into a kumi, so taking them apart wasn’t really an option. Instead of wasting them, I went searching for a pattern …

After the last bracelet experiment turned out so well, I had to try the same idea again. Previously we flipped a pattern so the arrows pointed toward the center, and it created an amazing X-shaped focal point that looked even better than the original design. …

What happens when you flip a friendship bracelet pattern and turn the arrows inward instead of outward? 🤔 In this video, I revisit a pattern we created just a few days ago—but this time I rotate the design and experiment with the direction of the …

Someone on Reddit asked for a pattern number for this bracelet… But you guys already know —we don’t use pattern numbers. We MAKE patterns. 😏 So today, I reverse-engineered a bracelet straight from a photo and built the pattern from scratch. 🧩 What We Figured …

Today we’re playing with Pattern #647 from friendship-bracelets.net and giving it a total makeover! 👀 It’s originally listed as a 6-color friendship bracelet pattern… but surprise — it really only uses FOUR colors in each section. So of course… we had to experiment. 😏 In …

Hey friends! 👋 Today we’re experimenting with Pattern 67 from friendship-bracelets.net — but instead of following it as-is, we rotate it counterclockwise and rebuild it from the top down. And honestly?At the start… I wasn’t even sure this would work. 😅 🎨 The Plan Instead …

Hey friends! 👋 Today we’re experimenting with Pattern 45 from friendship-bracelets.net — but instead of following it straight… we rotate it counterclockwise and rebuild it from the center out. What started as an arrow-style design turned into something way more interesting. Here’s what we changed: …

Hello friends! 👋 In today’s friendship bracelet tutorial, I take a super simple beginner dovetail pattern (4 colors, 16 strings) and completely transform it by rotating, flipping, and re-mapping the strings to create something way more dynamic. What started as an easy bracelet quickly turned …
