Hey guys! I am going to start working on bracelet #59026 and I want to try and do a loop start or another start that is different from just a knot. I've tried to do a loop before and after i finished it I didn't really know how to begin the pattern. The strings in this pattern are mirrored so I was hoping it would be a little easier to do the loop start with this pattern. If anyone has any tips or any youtube videos that could help, please let me know 🙂Thanks in advance and Happy New Year! |

You would make the pattern how you would normally do it if they’re wasn’t a loop. Unless you are do a teardrop loop or triangle ends after a loop. If your doing a teardrop loop or a triangle end, I can walk you through it if you want.

@apruva Thank you! I think I'm just confused how to connect it in the middle if that makes sense. Should I make the loop smaller so the strings are closer together?

You just connect the out two strings in the middle with a really tight knot. Hopefully this makes sense and if it doesn’t I recommend to watch a YouTube video on making loops.

For this bracelet if you are doing a loop I recommend doing a shaped start like a triangle start after the loop. For small bracelets it works decently to just start a bracelet without any specific start but the bigger the bracelet is the less smooth the start will look if you don't make a shaped start.
