Friendship Bracelets for All!

There’s no feeling like the last few weeks of summer. Step back in time to your childhood as instructor Riley Kleve guides you through deceptively simple braids and knots that can be used for bracelets, lanyards, ribbons, and beyond. You’ll learn forward and backward variations of a half hitch knot, square knots, granny knots, and more. Incorporate text and beads into your designs, too!

You will start several sample projects during class, ready to finish at home or wherever else summer takes you. Whether you’re tying knots for the first time or friendship bracelet royalty, there’s bound to be something for you to discover in this exciting new class!
