what kind of threads do you use because i am trying to make them but don't know what threads can someone please tell me thanks xD

RE: Peruvian Bracelets by K8e92 15 years ago

well the really thick one is a nylon cord but i'm pretty sure u can use almost any thicker thread and regular embroidery floss for the rest.

If the thread is too short just attach another piece through the loop top if you used a loop to and tie it on the other end. This bracelet is also known as the "Wave" bracelet and tutorials can be found on youtube.

can you please tell me where you got the nylon cord and what size it is? thank you

RE: Peruvian Bracelets by K8e92 15 years ago

i'm not sure where i got it (i just found it at my house) but i'm sure that you can find some at a craft store or the hardware store. if not you can use three or four regilar threads to make the thickness of the nylon cord

i have tried tons of times with tons of different tutorials, and i can never get it to work. it never goes into the wave shape and the strings go straight down in stead of curving over like there supposed to.. help?
