Notes

Some samples are for sale in my Etsy shop a $8.00 each.

I tried to post this as a pattern on Ravelry but a mystery moderator/editor removed it since its not crochet or knitting. Too bad, since I think its a great way to use every bit of yarn in a knitter’s stash.
I simply put a very small dot of crazy glue on the bracelet leaving a 1 inch tail. You could also simply knot a loop but it will want to unravel and slip.
I then wrapped the yarn all the way around the bangle. Careful not to overlap the wraps.
Once you get back to the crazy glue dot, pull the yarn tail with the glue away from the bangle and snip yarn just below where the glue spot is. The glued yarn is hard and scratchy.
Unwrap the freshly snipped end until you have a 6ish inch tail…you’ll use this tail to join with the other end and weave into the bracelet.
Now, finish wrapping the bangle until the bangle is completely covered. Cut leaving a 6ish inch tail.
Tightly join the 2 ends. Use a tapestry needle to weave the yarn tails into bangle. Snip off any excess.
Send me a picture of your bangle:)
