How To Make a Two Color Survival Bracelet.

Throughout this tutorial I will show you through a detailed tutorial of how to make a 2 color survival bracelet with the "Cobra Stitch". When finished, depending on your wrist size, the bracelet will unravel into 2 equal lengths of paracord each measuring 4-5 ft. long.

Should the measurement be snug or kind of loose

[Paravival]

WHen measuring you want it to be snug. Don't make it real tight. But you don't want it too loose either. Once you have that measurement you add 1" to it and thats your size. The 1" compensates for the thickness of the cord, and the snugness of the first measurement. Message me if you have any trouble!

In Step 8 you say to repeat Step 6 in reverse, but I think you meant repeat Step 7. And by reverse do you mean flip over the bracelet or just reverse steps?

[Paravival]

Thanks for picking that out. I changed it to say "Step 7".

A good way to look at it is the color you want to be in the middle (Which is blue in the finished product in this guide) always goes under the bracelet cords. So in my guide the blue cord starts on the left and goes under the bracelet cords. Then the next step it's on the right and u bring it under the bracelet cords from right to left. Then its going to be on the left again. So you take it from the left and go under bracelet cords again from left to right. And you just repeat this.

Hope this helps.

I ended up being able to do it finally. You're right it's mainly just switching sides from left to right is where I made a mistake but I figured it out. Thanks for the tutorial, very useful.

Thanks! your pictures are very clear and helpful. There are of course other ibles on this, but I found them too confusing and overwhelming. yours makes me think I could actually do it.

[Paravival]

Thanks a lot. I wanted to make sure anyone who used my tutorial could be able to make the bracelet!

Thanks again, way more to come!
