MAKE YOUR OWN PARACORD BRACELET

The paracord bracelet is essential prepper EDC, (Every Day Carry). The paracord bracelet is held together by a special weave called the Cobra Weave. Paracord can be found at your local camping, hardware or sports store. If you don’t have paracord – get creative! You could use other types of cord, such as utility cord or rope – just ensure it is roughly 4mm in diameter.

Once you have chosen your material, let’s get started!

2. Move up about 60cm from the bottom (where the fold is).

3. Now we can start the Cobra weave! Wrap the left cord around the back.

4. And then fold the right cord over the left cord and bring it under. Follow the diagram above.

5. Now fold the right cord over the front of both cords and feed it through the loop created in step 3.

6. Slowly tighten the loops by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

7. This time we are going to start with the right cord. Feed it round the back and over the left cord.

8. Now grab the left cord and guide it over and through the loop created on the right in step 7.

9. Slowly tighten the loops again by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

10. Then back to the left! Take the left cord, guide it round the back and over the right cord.

15. Pull tight. Looking great! Don’t worry if it takes you a few goes, practice makes perfect. It might also take a little while to �nd the right tension.

11. Take the right cord and feed it back through the loop on the left.

12. Pull tight. There you go! Looking good! 13. Repeat with the right. Take the right cord round the back and over the left cord.

14. Now take the left cord over the middle and feed it through the loop on the right.

16. Now alternate sides until the weave is long enough to wrap around your wrist. Everyone is di�erent so check as you go. There are two options to securing the loose ends of your cobra weave. If you are unsure of which one is right for you, ask an adult.

17. Once the weave is all secured cut the loop in the middle so the lengths are the same. If you are with an adult, you can melt the tips of these as well so the paracord won’t unravel. Don’t worry if you can’t melt the ends.

18. Find the �rst loop that we put in the paracord from step 4. Using the paracord �d from before or a pencil, gently open up the �rst loop so there is enough room to pass the paracord through. Repeat on the other side.

20. Then on each side feed through the ends of the cord that we prepared in step 17. You can use a paracord �d here if you want. Almost done!

21. You’re bracelet should look like this. 22. Now with both ends fed through the paracord weave, tie the two ends together. There’s lots of di�erent knots you can do. Maybe you can ask a friend to teach you one. Cut o� any excess.

23. Wow! You now have a Cobra Weave Paracord Bracelet. Having a few meters of cord on wrist with you at all times is handy, you never know when you might need it!

The paracord bracelet is essential prepper EDC –– Every Day Carry. Pick a colour you like and lets get started!

1. Choose a piece of paracord and fold it half. The full length of the cord should be about 3m long.

OPTION 1: The �rst method requires an adult’s help. When you bracelet is at the right length, pull the ends tight. Ask an adult to help cut the ends you have been weaving –– about 5mm from where it pops out.

Heat up the paracord ends with a �ame (such as a lighter) until it is melted and then press the melted plastic with a utensil or the metal part of the lighter. Don’t use your �ngers! It will be very hot! Repeat on the other side. You are ready to continue onto step 17!

OPTION 2: This option can be done by anyone. You’ll need to grab one of the weaving �ds provid-ed –– it’s like a big sewing needle. Choose one of the loose ends from your cobra weave and wind it into the �d hole.

Choose one �at side of the bracelet, this will be the inside of the bracelet. On the inside of your bracelet use the �d to weave under the cobra weave back towards the end where you started. Count four runs and pull it through tight.

Now attach the �d to the other loose end. On the same side, weave the �d through alongside the other loose end. After four runs, pull it through tight.

Finally, cut the ends close to the weave. Gently massage the weave to cover up the cut ends. You’re ready to press on!

Choose one �at side of the bracelet, this will be the inside of the bracelet. On the inside of your bracelet use the �d to weave under the cobra weave back towards the end where you started. Count four runs and pull it through tight.

Now attach the �d to the other loose end. On the same side, weave the �d through alongside the other loose end. After four runs, pull it through tight.

Finally, cut the ends close to the weave. Gently massage the weave to cover up the cut ends. You’re ready to press on!

2. Move up about 60cm from the bottom (where the fold is).

3. Now we can start the Cobra weave! Wrap the left cord around the back.

4. And then fold the right cord over the left cord and bring it under. Follow the diagram above.

5. Now fold the right cord over the front of both cords and feed it through the loop created in step 3.

6. Slowly tighten the loops by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

7. This time we are going to start with the right cord. Feed it round the back and over the left cord.

8. Now grab the left cord and guide it over and through the loop created on the right in step 7.

9. Slowly tighten the loops again by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

10. Then back to the left! Take the left cord, guide it round the back and over the right cord.

15. Pull tight. Looking great! Don’t worry if it takes you a few goes, practice makes perfect. It might also take a little while to �nd the right tension.

11. Take the right cord and feed it back through the loop on the left.

12. Pull tight. There you go! Looking good! 13. Repeat with the right. Take the right cord round the back and over the left cord.

16. Now alternate sides until the weave is long enough to wrap around your wrist. Everyone is di�erent so check as you go. There are two options to securing the loose ends of your cobra weave. If you are unsure of which one is right for you, ask an adult.

17. Once the weave is all secured cut the loop in the middle so the lengths are the same. If you are with an adult, you can melt the tips of these as well so the paracord won’t unravel. Don’t worry if you can’t melt the ends.

18. Find the �rst loop that we put in the paracord from step 4. Using the paracord �d from before or a pencil, gently open up the �rst loop so there is enough room to pass the paracord through. Repeat on the other side.

20. Then on each side feed through the ends of the cord that we prepared in step 17. You can use a paracord �d here if you want. Almost done!

21. You’re bracelet should look like this. 22. Now with both ends fed through the paracord weave, tie the two ends together. There’s lots of di�erent knots you can do. Maybe you can ask a friend to teach you one. Cut o� any excess.

Heat up the paracord ends with a �ame (such as a lighter) until it is melted and then press the melted plastic with a utensil or the metal part of the lighter. Don’t use your �ngers! It will be very hot! Repeat on the other side. You are ready to continue onto step 17!

OPTION 2: This option can be done by anyone. You’ll need to grab one of the weaving �ds provid-ed –– it’s like a big sewing needle. Choose one of the loose ends from your cobra weave and wind it into the �d hole.

Choose one �at side of the bracelet, this will be the inside of the bracelet. On the inside of your bracelet use the �d to weave under the cobra weave back towards the end where you started. Count four runs and pull it through tight.

Now attach the �d to the other loose end. On the same side, weave the �d through alongside the other loose end. After four runs, pull it through tight.

Finally, cut the ends close to the weave. Gently massage the weave to cover up the cut ends. You’re ready to press on!

2. Move up about 60cm from the bottom (where the fold is).

3. Now we can start the Cobra weave! Wrap the left cord around the back.

4. And then fold the right cord over the left cord and bring it under. Follow the diagram above.

5. Now fold the right cord over the front of both cords and feed it through the loop created in step 3.

6. Slowly tighten the loops by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

7. This time we are going to start with the right cord. Feed it round the back and over the left cord.

8. Now grab the left cord and guide it over and through the loop created on the right in step 7.

9. Slowly tighten the loops again by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

10. Then back to the left! Take the left cord, guide it round the back and over the right cord.

15. Pull tight. Looking great! Don’t worry if it takes you a few goes, practice makes perfect. It might also take a little while to �nd the right tension.

11. Take the right cord and feed it back through the loop on the left.

12. Pull tight. There you go! Looking good! 13. Repeat with the right. Take the right cord round the back and over the left cord.

14. Now take the left cord over the middle and feed it through the loop on the right.

16. Now alternate sides until the weave is long enough to wrap around your wrist. Everyone is di�erent so check as you go. There are two options to securing the loose ends of your cobra weave. If you are unsure of which one is right for you, ask an adult.

17. Once the weave is all secured cut the loop in the middle so the lengths are the same. If you are with an adult, you can melt the tips of these as well so the paracord won’t unravel. Don’t worry if you can’t melt the ends.

18. Find the �rst loop that we put in the paracord from step 4. Using the paracord �d from before or a pencil, gently open up the �rst loop so there is enough room to pass the paracord through. Repeat on the other side.

20. Then on each side feed through the ends of the cord that we prepared in step 17. You can use a paracord �d here if you want. Almost done!

21. You’re bracelet should look like this. 22. Now with both ends fed through the paracord weave, tie the two ends together. There’s lots of di�erent knots you can do. Maybe you can ask a friend to teach you one. Cut o� any excess.

23. Wow! You now have a Cobra Weave Paracord Bracelet. Having a few meters of cord on wrist with you at all times is handy, you never know when you might need it!

16. Now alternate sides until the weave is long enough to wrap around your wrist. Everyone is di�erent so check as you go. There are two options to securing the loose ends of your cobra weave. If you are unsure of which one is right for you, ask an adult.

17. Once the weave is all secured cut the loop in the middle so the lengths are the same. If you are with an adult, you can melt the tips of these as well so the paracord won’t unravel. Don’t worry if you can’t melt the ends.

18. Find the �rst loop that we put in the paracord from step 4. Using the paracord �d from before or a pencil, gently open up the �rst loop so there is enough room to pass the paracord through. Repeat on the other side.

20. Then on each side feed through the ends of the cord that we prepared in step 17. You can use a paracord �d here if you want. Almost done!

21. You’re bracelet should look like this. 22. Now with both ends fed through the paracord weave, tie the two ends together. There’s lots of di�erent knots you can do. Maybe you can ask a friend to teach you one. Cut o� any excess.

23. Wow! You now have a Cobra Weave Paracord Bracelet. Having a few meters of cord on wrist with you at all times is handy, you never know when you might need it!

The paracord bracelet is essential prepper EDC –– Every Day Carry. Pick a colour you like and lets get started!

1. Choose a piece of paracord and fold it half. The full length of the cord should be about 3m long.

OPTION 1: The �rst method requires an adult’s help. When you bracelet is at the right length, pull the ends tight. Ask an adult to help cut the ends you have been weaving –– about 5mm from where it pops out.

Heat up the paracord ends with a �ame (such as a lighter) until it is melted and then press the melted plastic with a utensil or the metal part of the lighter. Don’t use your �ngers! It will be very hot! Repeat on the other side. You are ready to continue onto step 17!

OPTION 2: This option can be done by anyone. You’ll need to grab one of the weaving �ds provid-ed –– it’s like a big sewing needle. Choose one of the loose ends from your cobra weave and wind it into the �d hole.

Choose one �at side of the bracelet, this will be the inside of the bracelet. On the inside of your bracelet use the �d to weave under the cobra weave back towards the end where you started. Count four runs and pull it through tight.

Now attach the �d to the other loose end. On the same side, weave the �d through alongside the other loose end. After four runs, pull it through tight.

Finally, cut the ends close to the weave. Gently massage the weave to cover up the cut ends. You’re ready to press on!

4. And then fold the right cord over the left cord and bring it under. Follow the diagram above.

5. Now fold the right cord over the front of both cords and feed it through the loop created in step 3.

6. Slowly tighten the loops by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

7. This time we are going to start with the right cord. Feed it round the back and over the left cord.

8. Now grab the left cord and guide it over and through the loop created on the right in step 7.

9. Slowly tighten the loops again by gently pulling the ends of the paracord until it is nice and snug.

10. Then back to the left! Take the left cord, guide it round the back and over the right cord.

15. Pull tight. Looking great! Don’t worry if it takes you a few goes, practice makes perfect. It might also take a little while to �nd the right tension.

11. Take the right cord and feed it back through the loop on the left.

12. Pull tight. There you go! Looking good! 13. Repeat with the right. Take the right cord round the back and over the left cord.
