Day 7 - Loom Bands!

Hey everyone,

 

Recently, everyone's been going crazy for Loom Bands, so I thought that I would do a post showing you how to make one of the basic Loom Bands, and if this gets a good response, maybe showing you how to make some harder bands in the future.

 

Today, I'm going to show you how to make a Single Chain bracelet. I used black and white, but obviously you can change the colours and mix it up if you like.

 

You will need:

 

 

 

*One Rainbow Loom

*One Hook

*13 Black Bands

*12 White Bands

*An 'S' or 'C' Clip

 

Step 1

 

 

With the red arrow facing away from you, attach a black band to the middle pin and stretch it to the right.

 

Step 2

 

 

Then attach a white band to the pin that the black band finished on and stretch it to left.

 

Step 3

 

 

Continue this pattern until you reach the end of the loom.

 

Step 4

 

 

Turn the loom around and pull the white band back so that it is only looped around one pin. This makes it look like the black band is attached to three pins.

 

Step 5

 

 

Loop the bands (this is hard to explain so if you need some extra help with the looping, I'll link a good help video). Then attach an 'S' or 'C' clip.

 

Step 6

 

 

Remove the bands from the loom and join the ends together with the 'S' or 'C' clip.
