Misanga bracelets are said to grant your wishes when you wear them.

They’re worn on the wrist or ankle, and there’s a rule that once you put one on, you shouldn’t take it off—but many people enjoy wearing them casually as accessories.

They’re also popular as matching items for sports days and school athletic festivals!

In this article, we introduce how to make misanga bracelets.

We cover a variety of designs—hearts, flowers, ribbons, leaves, and more—so feel free to use them as a reference and give it a try!

Simple Twisted Friendship Bracelet

For those who want to make a friendship bracelet quickly and easily, the loop-braiding method is recommended.

First, choose three colors of embroidery thread you like and cut each to about 75 cm.

Next, tie one end tightly and secure it to a desk with tape.

Then, using two strands as the core, twist the remaining strand around them, wrapping it as you go.

Once you get the hang of it, you should be able to finish a bracelet in about 20 minutes.

It’s also a great method when you want to make a lot.

A speed-weaving contest could be fun, too!
