Hello to all of you friends of diyhub, it's been a while since I last stopped by here to show you a craft, but hey, I hope that today you feel encouraged to join me in making a woven bracelet or flat knot bracelet. I'm going to make this bracelet for my mom since she wanted a new bracelet in red, so I got to work, and thinking of something different to make that isn't always the same, then I remembered that there is a design with beads with initials and I just bought some of those and it had the initial of my mom's name and I'm also going to add a bead with a heart, by the way, they are also red, and so that it isn't so red I will use black beads to make it look like flower petals, so I hope you like it.

I always like to use the flat knot because it's essential in macramé due to its versatility and durability. It's used to create repetitive patterns that form the basis of many macramé designs. It's ideal for beginners, as learning to tie the flat knot is the first step in this wonderful journey of macramé art. With this knot, you can create everything from simple projects to more elaborate and complex pieces, depending on your creativity and skill.

_{(Materiales:)||(Materials:)}

• Dos metros de hilo chino color rojo
• Tijeras
• Mostacillas de color negro
• Una cuenta con inicial y corazón
• Una vela encendida para ayudar a sellar las puntas del hilo

• Two meters of red Chinese thread
• Scissors
• Black seed beads
• One initial and heart bead
• A lit candle to help seal the ends of the thread

_{(Procedimiento:)||(Procedure:)}

• Paso nro 1

• Paso nro 1

First I'm going to start by taking the measurement of the wrist to know how much thread I'm going to use to make the bracelet and even though I have two meters of thread, it's never enough and then the times I make woven bracelets I don't have enough thread so it's better to measure and see how much thread is enough for the weaving, then I take the measurement of the wrist and that measurement will serve as the base of the bracelet, and with the rest of the thread I do the weaving.

• Paso nro 2

Ahora voy a comenzar a hacer el tejido primero voy a tomar la cuerda izquierda y cruzarla por detrás de las cuerdas guías y traerla hacia adelante introduciéndola a través del bucle o lazo de la cuerda derecha Ajustar a la altura donde deseas que quede el nudo terminado .Tomar la cuerda derecho y cruzarla por detrás de las cuerdas guías y traerla hacia adelante introduciéndola a través del bucle o lazo de la cuerda izquierda Apretar el nudo plano, tomando en cuenta que se deben alar ambas cuerdas (la derecha y la izquierda al mismo tiempo y aplicando la misma fuerza, para que el nudo quede derecho y no tienda a deformarse. Ahora, repetir el procedimiento, comenzando con la cuerda izquierda. Tomar la cuerda del lado izquierdo y cruzarla por encima de las cuerdas guías y luego por debajo de la cuerda del extremo derecho.

• Paso nro 2

Now I'm going to start weaving. First I'm going to take the left string and cross it behind the guide strings and bring it forward, inserting it through the loop of the right string. Adjust it to the height where you want the finished knot to be. Take the right string and cross it behind the guide strings and bring it forward, inserting it through the loop of the left string. Tighten the flat knot, taking into account that both strings (right and left) must be pulled at the same time and applying the same force, so that the knot is straight and does not tend to deform. Now, repeat the procedure, starting with the left string. Take the string on the left side and cross it over the guide strings and then under the rightmost string.

• Paso nro 3

Ya cuando veo que el tejido está a la mitad de la pulsera es el momento que colocar la cuenta con la inicial primero,la cuenta irá en el hilo base para que así quede en el medio,y en los hilos de los lados colocaré cinco mostacillas de cada lado y luego sigo continuando con el tejido pero solo hice dos vueltas,y luego coloque la cuenta con el corazón y hago el mismo procedimiento que al principio,coloque cinco mostacillas de cada lado y sello otra vez tejiendo,ya se puede ver que si tiene forma de flor.

• Paso nro 3

Now when I see that the weaving is halfway through the bracelet it is time to place the bead with the initial first, the bead will go on the base thread so that it is in the middle, and on the side threads I will place five beads on each side and then I continue with the weaving but I only made two turns, and then I place the bead with the heart and I do the same procedure as at the beginning, I place five beads on each side and seal again weaving, you can now see that it has the shape of a flower.

• Paso nro 4

Después de rato ya tenía la pulsera ya completamente tejida y veo que está vez quedó mejor el acabado, ahora para finalizar le voy a colocar en la punta de cada lado del hilo una cuenta de color negro y con la ayuda de una vela derreti la punta del hilo y sellé ,y así de esta manera ya terminé.

• Paso nro 4

After a while I had the bracelet completely woven and I see that this time the finish was better, now to finish I am going to place a black bead on the tip of each side of the thread and with the help of a candle I melted the tip of the thread and sealed it, and so in this way I am finished.

_{(Resultado final:)||(Bottom line:)}

Espero les haya parecido entretenido este tutoria,cada vez que hago una pulsera siempre quiero cambiar cosas que después que las hago pienso en debi hacer esto o lo otro pero eso se los mostrare en otras oportunidades, gracias los veré de nuevo en otra oportunidad.

I hope you found this tutorial entertaining. Every time I make a bracelet, I always want to change things. After I make it, I think, "I should have done this or that," but I'll show you that on other occasions. Thanks, I'll see you again another time.
