For the paracord knot bracelet, measure and cut a 72" length and 24" length from your glow cord.

Step 2:

Step 2 Tie a double overhand knot about 6" from one end of your 24" cord. This will be your base, center cord.

Step 3:

Tape the cord to your working space, above the knot.

Step 4:

Step 4 Find the center of your 72" cord by folding it in half and tie it onto the center cord.

TIP: The cord that is on the left side will be (A) and the cord on the right side will be (B).

Step 5:

Step 5 Bring one of the A strand sides up and cross the D strands horizontally in front, making a loop on one side.

Step 6:

Step 6 With the other long side of the A strand, wrap it around the first long paracord, on the opposite side of the loop. Insert the end of the second A strand through the loop of the first piece of the A strand and pull tight.

Step 7:

Step 7 Continue the braid by alternating the loops, front then back, until you reach the desired length. After a few braids, slide a pony bead onto your base cords the continue your braid around the bead.

Step 8:

Step 8 Tie a double overhand knot just below your last paracord knot. Add a dab of glue at the top of the excess strands just as they come out of the knot. Let dry.

Step 9:

Step 9 Push the excess A and B strands aside. Cut each end of the center strand to about 3½" from each knot at the top and bottom of your pattern. Bring the ends around so your bracelet is in a round shape and crisscross the strands in the center.

Step 10:

Step 10 Cut a 12" piece of cord and tie it over the crisscross of the D strands, holding them together.

Step 11:

Step 11 Make about five paracord knots around the two crisscrossed ends. Tie the ends in the back of the paracord knot. Add a dab of glue over this knot. Be careful not to get glue on the cords inside the paracord knots. Let glue dry.

Step 12:

Step 12 Tie a knot to the end of each excess cord to keep it from sliding through the paracord knot.

Step 13:

Step 13 Trim all excess strands.

Step 14:

Step 14 For the two simple Rainbow Loom® bracelets, thread about 17-18 rubber bands through pony beads.

Step 15:

Step 15 Place a rubber band across your pointer and middle finger with a twist in the center. Place a second rubber band across the same two fingers without a twist.

Step 16:

Step 16 With your hook, take the bottom rubber band, move it over the finger and place it in the center. Repeat on the other finger.

TIP: The first rubber band is now off of both fingers but wrapped around the second rubber band in the center.

Step 17:

Step 17 Place a rubber band with a pony bead across the two fingers where the pony bead is suspended between the two fingers. Repeat Step 16.

Step 18:

Step 18 Repeat Steps 16-17 with alternating rubber bands between without a pony bead and with a pony bead until you reach the desired bracelet length.

Step 19:

Step 19 Use a plastic clip to close the bracelet.
