How to Make a Friendship Bracelet or Keychain

I noticed that there is no instructable on a classic friendship bracelet. So, here ya go.

This is the simple striped pattern, and these could get far more complicated, but i don't know how to do those. =P

Step 1: Materials

All you need is

For bracelet:
embroidery floss or yarn.

for a key ring:
yarn
key ring
key chain to put it on

Step 2: Tieing the First Row

fold your yarn in half, and tie a knot at the fold.

now, take the strand on the far left and tie a double half hitch on the string to the next one over (see pic). tighten that, and pull it up to the top by the knot. then, do the same knot to the next string and continue until there are no more strings to tie.

take the string that is now on the far left (in my case the white),
and do the same thing that you did to the first piece of yarn.

At the end, do the double half hitch to the string that is sticking out from your first row.

Step 3: Keep Going...

just keep going!

Step 4: Tips, Etc.

1. don't accidentally flip over your work when your are in the middle of makeing it. you'll get a nice little kink.

2. I am no expert, so if you want to make patterns or anything, use the wonderful world of the internetz.

3.if you are wondering why this is in the pocket contest, im talking about the keychain use.

4. have fun making this, and if you like it, vote for it please!

5. i just realized this was probably posted a bit late for it to catch on for me to win, so I'm going for the random! (vote anyway though)
