How to Make Your Pipkits Duos

In this video tutorial we’re going to show you how to make your Pipkits Duos  Bracelet and Necklace Kit

 

  • To make the bracelet start with the shorter length of cord, a charm and rings. Divide the rings into two equal piles.
  • Start to thread the rings from one pile onto the end of the cord followed by the charm.
  • Now add the remaining rings from the second pile.
  • Form a knot by making a circle in the middle of the length of cord. Make sure you leave an even amount of cord either side for knotting.
  • Take one end and wrap it under the cord. Pull it round and wrap it back through itself and pull the knot tight.
  • Now do the same again at the opposite side of the circle and pull tightly to make another knot.
  • Now trim the excess cord on both sides with scissors leaving half a centimetre from the knot. You may need an adult to help you. 
  • Your bracelet is now finished and ready to wear or share with a friend. 

Now let’s make the necklace.

  • To make your necklace take the longer length of cord tie a knot 3 inches from one end of the cord and pull tight.
  • Now add a wooden bead and tie another knot to hold the bead in place.
  • Trim the cord half a centimetre from the knot with a pair of scissors. 
  • On the other end of the cord thread a metal bead followed by a charm and the remaining metal bead.
  • At the end of the cord fold over about 3” and pinch the cords together where they cross to create a loop.  Circle the end of the cord behind the loop.…
  • Pass the end of the cord through the circle from front to back to create a slip knot.
  • Adjusting this loop will keep your necklace secure when fastened to the bead on the opposite side.
  • Trim the excess cord from the loop knot with scissors.
  • And there you have it. We hope you’ve had fun making this Pipkits Duos Bracelet and Necklace kit.
