[@floatingisland544]

I'm just starting out and this is very helpful! I feel though, that if I don't pull it real tight, I can still see the thread between de beads when I put in on....When I just made it and I leave the glue on the knot to dry and it's just lying on the table then it looks okay, but when I put it on I see bits of thread showing...…or could that possibly be the weight of the charm?

[@KelliesBeadBoutique]

It’s hard for me to diagnose when I can’t see it.

[@floatingisland544]

@@KelliesBeadBoutique Thank you for the reply...It's a shame KZbin won't let you add images.

[@MamaJLW]

@@floatingisland544Is it possible that you need to add a few more beads? I’m guessing that it stretches a bit past the beads to fit the wrist.

[@floatingisland544]

@@MamaJLW Thanks, but I make them big enough and still have the problem....

[@MamaJLW]

@@floatingisland544 Bummer. I had the same problem on my first attempt. It was fixed by using a few more beads. I was hoping it was an easy fix for you. Good luck. I’m sure you will figure out how to make it work.

Kellie I just made this bracelet with my findings I had in my stash. Just love it. But the issue i found is that when I went to do the knot it was too big to fit into the hole at the last bead. How could I remedy the knot to fit into the hole that is not big like yours. I am knew so this is my first bracelet I have tried to do. Thanks. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

[@KelliesBeadBoutique]

Not much you can do. You would have to find a larger hole bead.

Love!!! I have a question about silk knitting and using hardware on real silk;in particular, crimps before and after last knots before clasp and o rings...is it okay? Will the metal cut the silk? Is there a better technique? You are amazing! , Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@KelliesBeadBoutique]

Thanks! Not knowing exactly what you are using it’s hard for me to answer. I use metal with my silk and I’ve never had a problem.

[@michelemurphy3541]

@@KelliesBeadBoutique oh, okay-I am using 1) waxed Irish linen 2) genuine silk silk cord Sterling & | or gold fill crimps with crimp covers. I was a little worried the metal would wear through the silk or linen so wondered if I should just knot directly to the o rings *(then, I can worry THOSE ends will come undone 😂)... I typically wire and rarely silk knot but am starting to restring a bunch of my turquoise onto the more organic feeling *(and moving) natural mediums like the linen and or silks~ Thank you for your input. You are an absolute delight!!

[@jenmathison2543]

At the 5:40 mark, the first knot, I’m confused. “Go through one time & then I’m gonna bring it back through a third time.” What happened to the second knot?

I think it’s the way I say it that’s confusing. Make one knot then make a double knot. That should be secure enough.

I don't think you mention how long of a piece of elastic you start with. I'm a beginner so I have no clue what works best!

[@KelliesBeadBoutique]

Some people like to leave it on the spool so there is no waste. I usually cut around 12” as I find it easier to tie knots when I have more material to work with.

[@JamieDeighton-zc2qe]

[@JoeMoose517]

This video helped me get over my fear of elastic bracelets. Thank you very much!

[@KelliesBeadBoutique]

I'm so glad!

[@kimbain4368]

Very nice! Since I have both arthritis and neuropathy my fingers don't always want to work with clasps (though the magnetic ones are very easy to use). I find that elastic bracelets are the easiest of all -- just roll them on. I think that elastic bracelets, by and large, don't get the love that they deserve. They can be just as fancy and elegant as a bracelet with a clasp, and will last a very long time if cared for the same as fine jewelry. Thanks for this video to remind the seasoned beaders of and awaken the new beaders to the joy of elastic jewelry.

[@KelliesBeadBoutique]

Thank so much Kim! I am now a convert. It took me a long time to feel comfortable about teaching how to make them. I think I finally have it down!
