GLOSSARY:
Elastic Bind off
Knit one stitch. Knit another one. Now, insert your left needle through the 2nd stitch on your right, in front of the right needle. Knit these two stitches together through the back loop. You have bound off one stitch. Now you can knit the following stitch from your left needle and repeat the process until you have worked all your stitches.
Construction
The Vanilla Bracelet is worked in the round and designed to be quick and customizable. The pattern includes instructions for three widths—7 mm, 12 mm, and 25 mm (cuff style)—and two loop options: single or double. Ideal for using up leftover yarn, these bangles are knit as tubes and finished around a bracelet form or sturdy insert to maintain shape.
