This kind of bracelet is made with the normal pattern knot but in reverse, soon you will see what i'm talking about ... is very simple to do and you can create countless shapes and designs with this.
Step 1 • Make Clip
Make Clip
We will make the clip before starting the bracelet.
For this we must cut 5 threads of a size of approximately 1.20 mts. (I'm using ocher, pink, orange, yellow and sky blue)
After that we bend the strings to find the half and when we find it we will make a knot.
Then we begin to make a braid about 2 or 3 cm from the knot and close it. After that, close the opposite side too.

REMEMBER to arrange the colors of the bracelet before starting the braid.
Step 2 • Arrange Colors
Arrange Colors
When we have the clip ready, arrange the colors of the bracelet again, these colors must be ordered as mirrors.
Now that we are ready we will start with the Normal Knot in reverse.

Step 3 • Soul String
The Soul String
First we must know that there is a soul string and there are others that are rolled over it.
This soul-string sets the direction and this is exactly with what we'll play.
We begin the design of the bracelet with two horizontal lines. We will use one outer string as a soul string. In my case is the sky-blue string.
This string should be placed above the other strings all the time (talking about the soul string)

We need to REMEMBER to give direccion (horizontal) with the soul string while we are rolling the other ones.
Step 4 • Horizontal Lines
Horizontal Lines
We begin by placing the soul string over the other ones.
Then we roll up the first string (yellow) on the soul string (sky blue).

We need to make the steps 6 and 7 two times with each string to make 1 knot, and we need to reach the other sky blue string to finish this step.

REMEMBER to give direccion with the soul string, try not to move it and keep it stretched
Once we've finished we will grab the soul string and well try to get it back to the other extreme to make the second horizontal line.

Step 5 • Going Crazy
Going Crazy
Ok... now that we have the 2 horizontal lines we are ready for the REAL pattern, we will work as we talked before with soul strings. For this pattern we will have two soul strings, the soul strings will be the sky-blue ones, and with them we will make diagonal lines insted of horizontal lines.

We need to give a diagonal direction with the soul string first and then roll over the other ones.
REMEMBER you need to make step 15 and 16 two times to get the step 17 done.
We will roll 4 strings over the soul string, the yellow, the orange, the pink and the ocher one. Once we get to the middle we'll repeat the process on the opposite side.
NOTE that the sky blue strings once they are in the middle they dont roll over each other
When we finish rolling the 4 strings we'll switch the color of the soul strings... now they will be the yellow ones.
