Weaving on the slingshot

Weaving the bracelet out of the rubber bands is not an easy task, because you need to work hard on it to avoid getting lost in the process. But, if you understand the algorithm and technology, creating an ornament will be easy for you. Throughout the length of the accessory decorate small bows, due to which he got his name. Use the step-by-step instruction:

We take a slingshot, we turn so that the grooves look in your direction. We throw three elastic bands of braid color: first we twist three times and cling to the left column, the other two we put on both pins without twisting the figure-eight, as shown in the photo.
Next we throw the color of the central pattern, that is, the bows.

We throw into the center the first twisted iris.
We begin to alternate colors, stringing the color of braids and bows. We catch one, we start the hook under the second from above, grab the bottom, we drop in the middle. The same is done on the other side.

Plait according to the described sequence: we catch the next color, we hook under the second from above, we catch the bottom, we throw off.
We continue to weave on the above technology, until we reach the desired length.

To finish the decoration, we drop the lower loops in the middle, transfer the remaining ones from one column to the other. Connect the clip to both ends of the product.

How to weave on the hook

Bracelet on the hook differs in appearance from the previous one. He has the appearance of a bow or butterfly, worn by men around his neck. To braid the product you will need a hook: it's better to use metal, rather than plastic, it's more convenient to work with. Here's the step-by-step instruction:

In three turns, put the iris on the hook. We catch another couple, we throw off the twisted into the center. We crochet for the second edge of the pair.
Remove the resulting construction in the center of the next pair.

We do the second step three more times.
Enter the head of the hook at the beginning of the received pigtail.

Remove the first loops in the center of the new pair.
Repeat the previous step 4 times.

Insert the head of the hook into the center of the resulting weave.
We skip the first loops in the middle of a new pair. We repeat this 5 times.

We remove all the loops for the next color of a pair of rubber bands.
We continue to weave a pigtail: in the center of a new pair we unhook the loops from the hook. We remove from the hook, we catch the plastic clip. One half is ready.

We introduce the hook head into the upper loops.
Repeat all the above steps, creating the second half of the product. We connect both ends with a clip. In the center of the bow, we throw a couple twisted together.

The original method of weaving bracelet in the form of several bows

This method of weaving helps to make a bracelet that consists of several bows. This is an easy and fast way, based on a simple pigtail. For work it is necessary to choose several colors of elastic bands for bows and additional irises - for their connection among themselves. Follow the step by step instructions:

We twist the first rubber band with the eight on the hook. Picking up a new iris, we draw it through two available loops, then put the other edge of the same rubber on the hook. It turns out again 2 loops.
Plait a pigtail of two irises. Pull the hook into the eyelet of the previous color, weave the second pigtail.

Return the hook to the white loop, make the third pigtail. Next we pass through all the loops.
We repeat the second and third steps, creating the second part of the bow.

Repeating the above technique, weave a few more bows until the decoration is of the required length.
We connect both ends of the product with a clip. In the middle of each bow, we put on a rubber band that is twisted several times.

We throw the first and second gum with the eight. We pass all the loops through a new iris.
We gird two gums through the left and right loop.

We add three more irises, tying the first through an extreme loop, the second - through two central, the third - through the last.
We add four more: two - on the edges, two - on the center.

Through all the loops we extend the iris of a different color, exchanging the central ones.
Begin to weave a half of the bracelet: each time on the hook there will be four loops, of which two central ones need to be swapped before adding a new rubber band. We stretch one iris through two loops, the second through the remaining ones.

We continue to weave a bracelet according to this pattern: we cross two central loops among ourselves, we add two new gums, passing one through the first two loops, the second through the last two, continue to dress the gums in sequence. At the end, we attach the clip.
One piece of the bracelet is ready. Second sham: poke the head of the hook into the four central bows of the bow.

Let's proceed to weaving another part of the chain. Repeat 6-7 steps until we reach the desired size. We connect both ends with a plastic clasp.
