Part 2: Making the Braided Bracelet Cord
Cut three strands of yarn, each approximately 60-70 cm long (adjust for desired bracelet length). Use one strand of Light Green, one strand of Cream/Beige, and one strand of Bright Yellow.
Hold all three strands together and make an overhand knot about 5cm from one end.
Braid the three strands together until the braided section is about 15-20 cm long, or the desired length for the section where flowers will be attached.
Make another overhand knot at this point to secure the braid.
Part 3: Assembly
Arrange the crocheted flowers and leaves on the braided section of the cord. Place the large daisy in the center, flanked by the smaller flowers and leaves, mimicking the look in the image.
Using a tapestry needle and the yarn tails you left earlier, carefully sew each flower and leaf securely onto the braided cord. Weave in any remaining yarn ends discreetly into the back of the work or the braid.
Finishing the Bracelet:
On one end of the braided cord (the longer tail section), thread the small wooden bead onto the three strands.
Make an overhand knot immediately after the bead to secure it in place.
Make another overhand knot a few inches further down the strands to create a loop for adjusting the bracelet size.
Trim the ends of the strands to create a neat small tassel.
The other end of the bracelet (the short tail section before the first knot) will be used to tie to the loop created by the bead and the knot, allowing for adjustable sizing.
