Chinese Staircase
I know there's tons of tutorials on the chinese staircase already but with this video i will hope to clariffy some things for you (:Alright, so first thing is first, you need your string. It doesn't matter how many strands you have but i prefer to keep it between 3 and 6 so it doesn't get too thick.
1. Set your bracelet up normally, with strings tied together at the end. The length of the string should be about 5 inches shorter or so than a normal bracelet would be.
2. Time to start tying. First, take the furthest left string and make forward knots around ALL of the other strands at the same time (this is shown in the video). Make about 10 knots but you can change this amount.
3. Move onto your next string and do the same thing and so on.
**this pattern is great for left over bracelet string because the strings do not need to be very long.
