Two nice colors together in a traditional plain weave turks head knot bracelet. The brown color is the stock cord from Darice made with polyester and the red is a custom dye bath made with RIT scarlet dye. The white 3 mm cord is immersed for about 2 minutes. More on the dye process here.
I buy the cord from JOANN Fabrics (always use the discount coupons)
This five part design is started with the brown cord built on a mold in a 17 bight double diamond pattern. The red cord is added once the knot is complete.
Here's a glossary of terms for these knots.
Here's how to add the center strand.
This design is a "medium" size about 7 5/8" (193 mm) inside circumference.
