Double Friendship Bracelet Pattern

I love this double chevron bracelet. Don't you? A double friendship bracelet pattern is made exactly as a single bracelet, with an extra forward knot to join the two halves.  This double chevron bracelet is simply two joined chevron bracelets.

  • Embroidery floss in your choice of colors:
    This double bracelet pattern can be made using at least two colors or as many as you would like. This particular bracelet (see picture) calls for four colors: gold (1), rust (2), green (3), and blue (4).

Friendship Bracelet Instructions

Things to know before you begin:

The knots used for this pattern are the forward knot (F) and backward knot (B).
Instructions for the knots and starting and finishing instructions are here.

Step 1

Cut two strands of each color to desired length.  For this particular pattern, 65 inches will produce approximately a 6 ½ inch (including loop and knot) tight bracelet.

Step 2

Fold strands in half and make a loop and knot at the top.  Pin the knot to your workstation pillow.

Step 3

Arrange colors:  1234 4321 1234 4321.  The outer strands (gold) will be used first.
