Hi Joan,
Thanks for the question and your kind words! We do not have a class for these bracelets but the step by step direction booklet is filled with instructive pictures and can get even the newest crafter from leather cording to a beautiful bracelet.
I hope that this helps!

I’m having a problem with your link to the pattern only:

The page keeps reloading, in both Safari and Chrome using the 6S Plus iPhone.
Any suggestions on how to access the page?
Thanks.

(If not can you recommend a company that does so? Auto pay set up for each month and sent as a gift to 3tf
Hi Bonnie,
Thanks for writing in! What a great idea! We do not offer subscription based jewelry kits. All of our currently available kits in this area can be found here: https://www.purlsoho.com/kits/craft.html
While I am not aware of a company that offers this, it is such a good idea that I am sure that someone must be doing something similar!
Best,
Cassy
Hello
I purchased your pattern and have finished my first bracelet. I followed the cutting directions and then followed the pattern and braided to 6.5 inches. My problem is after finishing I have 5.5 inches left to be trimmed to 1.5 inches. That leaves 4 inches times the 10 strands – 40 inches of leather ends to cut off. This seems wasteful to me and I’m wondering if you have made updates to the pattern recently. I thought it possible that I braided too tightly but it looks very much like the ones in the photos.
Any response would be appreciated.
Thanks
Teresa
Hi Teresa,
Thanks for reaching out and sharing with us! For this project, we found that different folks working on the same bracelet used slightly different amounts of leather. For some folks, there was a little over 2 inches per strand and for others a few more inches. With that in mind, we erred on the higher side to ensure that no one would run out of cording while making their bracelet. For some folks, this will mean slightly more wastage than others but given that you can’t add more length if you come up short, we feel that the slight extra length is the way to go.
We very much appreciate you sharing you concerns with us and hope that this helps explain the measurements that we choose here!
Best,
Cassy
