Tracing the Roots of Friendship Bracelet Making

Tracing the Roots of Friendship Bracelet Making
Friendship bracelets have become a widespread accessory, adorning the wrists of individuals across generations, from children to grandparents. Primarily crafted from embroidery thread or yarn, these bracelets showcase intricate patterns, with some incorporating beads into the design. The creation of friendship bracelets is ageless, making it a delightful project for everyone.

A friendship bracelet is a heartfelt, handmade gesture intended for a special individual. The roots of knot-tying arts extend independently across the globe. Ancient China witnessed the creation of decorative knots between 481 to 221 B.C., showcasing their versatility in clothing decoration, buttons, and household items. Macramé, the art of tying knots to craft intricate patterns, is said to have originated in 13th-century Arabia before traveling to Italy and France. Sailors adopted these knot-tying practices, integral to their repertoire, with macramé gaining popularity in 19th-century Britain and experiencing a revival in the 1960s in the U.S.

The Symbolism of Friendship Bracelets:
A friendship bracelet transcends being a mere accessory; it symbolizes the essence of friendship. When gifted, it serves as a perpetual reminder of camaraderie, intended to be worn continuously as a testament to lasting bonds. At Wecord London, we encourage thoughtful selection of colours, aligning with the character traits of the recipient. For instance:

- Red represents Honesty
