3.     Arrange colors 1212 2121

4.     With the far right string make 3 backward knots, and with the far left string make 4 forward knots.

5.     The color pattern should now be 2121 1212.

6.     Repeat step 4 using the now outer strings.

7.     With the second rightmost string, make a forward knot. 

8.     With the second leftmost string, make a backward knot.

9.     With the now second rightmost string, make 2 backward knots and with the now second leftmost string make 3 forward knots.

10.            The color pattern should now be 2121 1212.

11.            With the rightmost string, make a forward knot.

12.            Using the leftmost string, make a backward knot.

13.            The color pattern should now be 1221 1221.

14.            With the second rightmost string make 2 backward knots. 

15.            With the second leftmost string, make 3 forward knots. 

16.            The color pattern should now be 1212 2121

17.            Repeat from step 4 to complete the bracelet.
