Bracelets not made with string

WIP004 Skiller	5 years, 2 months ago by WIP004 Hey! My brother is having a baby and I was wondering if I could follow an alpha pattern with another softer and larger material like something you crochet with. Has anyone made a bracelet pattern with something other than friendship bracelet string?

Someone_ Bracelet King	5 years, 2 months ago by Someone_ You can use it. I've used crochet yarn, and I found that it takes a little getting used to if you are used to embroidery floss (like I was). I find that it works really well if the pattern uses a small number of strings, because it makes it look bigger compared to when you are using embroidery floss. But the overall feel of it when you are making the bracelet feels so much better in comparison. 🙂 I have a picture on my profile with a bracelet that I made with it if you would like to see so you get some sort of idea on how it looks - it's the last picture I uploaded 🙂
