Hi! I have an idea for what to do! So I found this tutorial https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6ILb9nBH3po on how to do a closure with no hanging strings, but it doesn’t look super secure to me 🙁. You need to do a loop for it, but Masha Knots has a tutorial on how to make a loop when the threads aren’t the same on both sides, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_IyGiKsjNJM Hope this is helpful!

For this, since it would be a safety issue if there is something hanging down I would do crimp ends with a chain and clasp. It looks great and minimizes the dangers that could potentially come to the surface if this wasn't done.

You could use a button but you'd have to get the person's exact wrist size.

What I do for my bracelets is a braided end on each side of the bracelet and then I do a series of square knots, which allows it to be adjustable and secure.Here's a link for a video tutorial by kinsey b https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfdHQb5dxPI |

@emmamonhi you do it the exact same way you’d add a string to an alpha

@cuteknots thanks for watching my YouTube tutorial 😂 I can assure you that if done correctly it’s pretty secure. BUT you do need to know the exact size of the wearers wrist as there is no adjusting it. My own wrist is 6.5inches around so I’m going to say the purchaser’s guess probably isn’t correct as I have a small wrist and am female. But I’ve been wearing a bracelet with this closure for going on 4 months now, have never taken it off and it hasn’t fallen off. I expect to get another probably two - three months of constant wear out of it before I have to re-tie the overhand knot at the end but it would be less if the individual is taking it on and off consistently.

im not sure if this helps but ive made a loop on bracelets with string that arent mirrored. i just do it normally and when im about to start the actual bracelet i just arrange the strings in the correct order and start knotting and it turns out fine? couldnt you do that and make the bracelet the right size? maybe ask the buyer to measure their wrist? then add a button on the end? sorry if i didnt help much

@Margaron I am so sorry if I offended you. I was just think since they are a truck driver it might not be as secure as a knot, but that’s great to know! But what you said about knowing the exact size is kind of a problem😕. Lol
