Because I was going to do triangle ends

@cooper10 you could untie the loop, and loop threads through other threads by looking at the pattern to see what string needs to be where. Does this make sense? If not Masha Knots has a video on YouTube on how to make a half and half loop, so it would essentially be this concept except you wont split the string in half. Hope this helps!

And then you could do the triangle ends of of the loop where the black outline is

Masha has a video on how to do this. It is a little tricky though.

A couple other solutions:

You could also just do ties coming from each end, starting and ending the bracelet in one triangle end, rather than two triangles coming from the loop.

You could make a longer loop section, and then make a forward-backward knot over all the strings to secure it. Then make one triangle end coming from that loop. It should work, as you have an even number of strings in total.
