Materials for a bracelet

So, how to create a shamballa bracelet? Weaving this thing will not take long, and for work you will need a waxed or leather cord, beautiful beads and a small plaque. If there is none, then it's easy to do by picking up a suitable piece of wood and hammering a small carnation from one side. An alternative to this device can be a small pillow and an ordinary pin, which will be attached to the cord for convenience. You can also use ordinary scotch - in this case, weaving can be glued directly to the table.

Usually the cord is taken in black, although it is not necessary. But the choice of beads should be given special attention, because they will set the style of decoration, and on them depends its attractiveness.

Simple bracelet

How does the work on the Shamballa bracelet begin? Weaving begins with the measurement of the wrist and cut the main thread twice as much as this measure. Two working cables make three times longer, so that they are enough for all the weaves. After all the segments are connected with one knot, leaving about 4 cm of the free edge of the base. Start work by tying a short cord with macrame loops to the left or right side, creating the so-called "square knot". Continue this knitting until the turn of the bead, which is strung on the base, is brought close to the weave and fastened with a square knot. Next is the turn of the next bead.

After the required length is ready, the working ropes are cut and fixed with superglue. Next, you need to form a clasp for a shamballa bracelet, the braiding of which is also produced by square knots, only now bind two free ends of the base folded in the opposite direction in such a way that the work is closed in a circle. The final step is the fastening of small acrylic beads to the edges of the cords.

Double Bracelet

The weaving of a double shamballa bracelet is somewhat different from simple. First, to create such an ornament, more needles and a cord will be needed, and secondly, the knots in this bracelet differ slightly from the simple version. Before starting work, we create a special scheme for weaving a shamballa bracelet - this is especially important if any pattern is planned from beads.

The work begins with the fact that three cord cut off: one 1.5 meters and two half a meter. Basics bind and strengthen for work. Further on each of them string on 12 beads and, having pulled out cords, fasten them from the second party. The next stage is knitting knots from a working thread, which is produced around two bases above the beads. The working thread is fastened and weave 4 square knots. Then they begin to braid the beads with one of the working cords, passing it under the bracelet according to the principle of a spiral, winding it between the beads. The second working thread is twisted the same way, only spend it on work. The final stage is 4 square nodules and the formation of the fastener.
