Iโ€™m trying to make a bordered chevron bracelet with 5 colours, and I want the border to be the same as one of those 5 colours. How many strings of each colour do I cut and what length?
The tutorial I was watching said to cut two strings of each colour (meaning 10 strings) and then to fold them all in half, which would end up as 20 strings. That doesnโ€™t sound right?? Also, how many strings would I need to cut for the border?

I would say 1 string of each color (you would fold it in half to make 2) but 1 of the colors you would cut an extra, so when you fold it in half you would have a total of 12 strings, 2 of each color and an extra of one to use as the border. hope this helps ๐Ÿ˜„

Pattern #20800 is the pattern for the bordered chevron with 5 colours on the inside. I know, you probably don't need it anymore, but looking at the pattern can sometimes be useful.
