Here is one of the easiest ways for those who are just starting to master this type of needlework. For work you will need:

• Threads of a mule of two colors, which you prefer.
• Pillow and pin. They are needed in order to fix the work.
• Scissors.

Take a thread of one color and cut from it 4 strings of 60 cm each, do the same with a thread of another shade. In total, there will be 8 threads. Now arrange them, alternating colors. Back off 8 cm from the beginning and tie the knot. Take the pin and thread it through the bundle, and then fasten it on the pillow. The cushion is best clamped between the knees. In this way, you fix the threads. But you can choose a method that is more convenient for you. For example, a board and a clerical clamp.

We begin to weave a bracelet with the left red thread. Wrap it around the next, white thread, and pull to the very top, so that a knot comes out. In the same way, and with the same threads repeat the whole process, you need to do always two nodules. Another important point - try to tighten all the nodules the same way, otherwise the work will not be very smooth.

The same red thread is wrapped around the 2nd and 3rd threads, the whole process is the same as with the 1st. As a result, the red thread should be the 4th in the middle.

Now leave this thread and switch to a thread of the same color, only the extreme on the right. We do everything the same, only the work will go from right to left.

When your right red thread is in the center, the first row is finished. Proceed to the second. Here the whole process goes exactly the same, only the leading threads on the left and on the right are blue. In the end they will also be in the center. Do not forget that each time you need to knit two nodules.

Now form the heart. To do this, take the second thread on the left and tie it around the first red thread on the left.

We pass to the other side and the second blue thread on the right binds the first thread of red color.

Now, on the left, take the second thread, red, and move it to the middle, making the nodules on the 3rd and 4th threads. Do the same on the right.

Again, take the second thread on the left and wrap the first thread, the same way on the right. After the blue thread, the second from the left, we tie the 3rd and 4th to the middle, and the same we do on the right.

Now repeat the 2 very first rows. And then start again with the second thread, as described above. Alternate all actions in accordance with the description.

When the bracelet reaches the desired length, tie the threads to the knot, cut the excess threads. Everything, the bracelet is ready, and you learned how to weave simple baubles of thread.

The Slavs believed that such a thread on the hand protects from the evil eye and treats some diseases. But in India, the red thread on the hand denotes a kindred love, in the sense that with the help of this bracelet you can be related to a person close to the heart.
