I think I am going to make this except I will change out the single white and single light teal thread with one color changing thread that changes from light teal to medium-darkish teal! Hopefully it turns out well!
@SoggyToast that is really helpful. Sadly I did the pattern already and cut the strings all the same length. Still worked but it was waaaay too much for blue and sand colour. If I had seen this before it would have been so helpful.
Just for reference for all of you wondering how much thread you'll need: I cut one strand of white 62in, one strand of light green 62in, 3 strands of tan 80in (folded over), and two strands of green 71in (folded over). This was enough to tie about 5in of bracelet in addition to a 1in loop at the top and 3 inch ties at the ends and about 18in of the shortest thread left.
