What type of friendship bracelets are there?

Answer 1

The most common type of homemade friendship bracelets is the knotted sort. Different colored strings are double-knotted together to form a bracelet with a design that is reversible. Pictures, letters, and designs can all be portrayed on these bracelets. The following link is my favorite site for these bracelets: http:/www.friendship-bracelets.net/index.php

There are also macrame (accent over that e) bracelets (sometimes referred to as hemp bracelets) that are given as friendship bracelets. These usually have four strings, though more complicated patterns may require more. In general, two strings serve as the base and the other two are knotted around the base. Unlike the knotted bracelets, macrame bracelets do not form a fabric-like material.

Knotted friendship bracelets and macrame bracelets are the two most common friendship bracelets, but any bracelet given to a friend can become a friendship bracelet. Knotted, macrame, braided, card braided, knit, finger knit, french knit, glue, and charm bracelets can all become friendship bracelets. Even a bit of yarn or string with a knot to hold it in a circle can be a friendship bracelet!
