Peace bracelets

Peace bracelets are a great craft for children of any age! Each bracelet can be as simple or as complicated as you wish--we have ideas for variations or embellishments. Weaving is a craft known around the world in all cultures throughout time. From making cloth for clothing to nets for fishing, this art has been, and still is, an important part of everyone's life. The FRIENDSHIP BRACELET is a weaving project that you can make and send to all your friends. Wearing the bracelet around their wrist or ankle will let them know you care. For younger children (ages 4-7) a twist or braid is easiest. Use a thick yarn as the stands will be easier to control. For older children: Choose from many stitches, braids and weaving patterns.
