I think my favorite so far is the OSU ladder rack bracelet you made.

That looks nice. Here is one I made for my wife in honor of her aunt.

Very nice. Hope your aunt in law did well

She beat it once, then relapsed, and passed away about 2 years ago. Sad, but she is still an inspiration. RIP Martha.

Ok how do you put the ribbons in? I have tried and mine never come out right!

I used a double point needle from the sewing section at Michael's. I used it to spread the weave a bit, then stuff the pink cord through. I simply follow the path you see in the picture. Once the pink cord is through, you can tighten the knots from the opposite side to hold the pink in place, then snip the ends, and singe and "mushroom" the singed ends. This can also be done with paracord fids, which are basically a paracord needle. I didn't have any when I made these.

Phoenix thanks, that's what I was doing, mine just looked like well you know. I'll try and do another one and see how it comes out.

Good luck. You tube is a good place to get ideas. Some of the videos are really great, and some are crap... Pretty much like the rest of the internet. lol

You got that right!

You can use a pair of hemostats or needle nose pliers. You just want to open up the knot enough to place the paracord inside but not enough to mess up the knot.

I think I'm ok on fuss needles and hemostats.
