Pass the top right strand through the bracelet. Bring it forward between the two middle strands at the left. Then fold it back across the band over the third strand and under the fourth. ([Fig. 51].) Pull it tight. Next do the same with the upper left strand ([Fig. 52]), and continue alternately weaving the top left and right strands in this way. The last strand woven shows as the lowest on the inside, so you can always tell which strand to weave next.

If the pattern does not come out even when you have woven the entire distance around the bracelet, ease the braid back around the band to gain whatever additional space you need in order to complete the design.
Clip the ends of the strands to make them pointed. Then weave the lower right strand under the beginning strand on the same side. ([Fig. 53].) Weave the lower left strand over the first and under the second beginning strands on the left. ([Fig. 54].) Then weave the free strand on the left over one—under one, thus completing the face of the braid with all the strands woven to the edge. ([Fig. 55].)
