Paracord Hanging Chair

This project takes some time and patience, but when done, you've got a comfortable place to relax and read a book. We found a small round chair and disassembled it for our round frame. Then we tied square knots for the back and bottom of the chair. We tied a four strand round braid to create our cords to hang the chair. See our four strand dog leash tutorial for details on how to braid and finish these.

Wide Side Step Bracelet or Dog Collar

The wide side step is an original design by Joe Clegg. We used this design to make our martingale dog collar, but it makes a fun wide bracelet as well. Plan on using about 10-12 feet each of paracord in two colors for a bracelet.

See our 550 paracord.

Martingale Dog Collar

This martingale dog collar was made with the wide side step design, but can be made with any of your favorite weaves such as the cobra weave. This style of collar works like an adjustable collar, great for a dog who can slip out of its collar. You'll need about 15-20 feet of paracord, two D rings, and one O ring.

Fenrir Bracelet

This design by Makhambet Auyezov uses about 16 inches of 425 or 325 paracord for the core and about 5.5 feet of 275 or Type 1 paracord for the knotting. We finished this bracelet with a magnet clasp and added one of our titanium beads in the center.

Dog Tennis Ball Toy

Pull out an old tennis ball and 20 ft of paracord for this dog toy. We used two pieces of paracord at 10 ft and used the four strand round braid completed with a crown knot for this toy. You'll need a sharp knife to carefully cut two holes in the tennis ball to insert your braid through the ball.

See our 550 paracord.

Twisted Micro cord Bracelet

Here's a twist on an old classic. Similar to the cobra weave, you tie a "granny" knot to make this weave twist. Add some beads or charms as desired.

Beaded Key Fob

This project can be altered in many ways to suit your style and finished product. You can also switch out the clasp for a bracelet clasp and turn it into a beaded bracelet. The top key fob is made with type 1 paracord and without any barrel knots between the beads and the bottom is made with 275 paracord a barrel knot with two wraps.

Three Ring Multi Strand Bracelet

We used three split rings and the color to color 275 paracord for this fun colorful bracelet. By taking the inner strands out of the cord we felt it laid a little better inside the rings.

Grasshopper Bracelet

This bracelet used about 5 ft in two colors, but plan on having a little extra to work with. We finished it off with a 1/2 inch buckle. This made a bracelet about 3/4 inch wide. We also made another version with four strand core for a wider 1 inch bracelet.

Side Winder Bracelet

Captain Bracelet

This bracelet can be a little tricky to tighten at first but once you get the hang of it you get a nice design. You'll need a lacing needle to add the coyote color cord at the end.

Cautionary Trail

Here's another new design for a wide bracelet. It uses eight feet of yellow cord and six feet of each of the other three colors and makes a 9 inch long, 1 1/4 inch wide bracelet.

Split Alternating X's

The way we tied this bracelet makes the X alternate. It can be modified to have them all go the same way. This makes a thick bracelet, so keep that in mind when deciding the finished length needed.

Dark Days Bracelet

For this bracelet, start with a four strand double cow's hitch with a twist! You'll want a lacing needle to weave the strands in and out of your twisted cords.

Baseball or Stitched Solomon Bracelet

Make a paracord bracelet for your baseball fans. This is a stitched solomon bracelet made with white and red to resemble the stitches on a baseball. This can also be done in yellow and red for softball fans.

Gear Wheel Bracelet

Add one of our new viking rune beads to this round bracelet or leave it plain. Either way looks great. If using a bead, we recommend using 425 or 325 paracord. This weave creates a nice stripe down the middle which is also great for making thin blue line bracelets.

Titanium Force

Get out your lacing needle for this wide bracelet. We used about 22 feet total for this 8 1/2 inch bracelet.

Titanium Spring

We used almost 20 feet of paracord for this bracelet. You'll also need a lacing needle to wrap the titanium colored cord around the outside edges.

Cold Pockets

The spaces between the grey cords show small "pockets" of blue in this design. You'll make a modified two strand double cow's hitch to create a closed four strand double cow's hitch for the core of this bracelet.

Cascade

This pattern leaves the middle two strands to show through the V shape down the middle of the bracelet. You'll need a lacing needle to weave the second strand of blue through the outside edges.

Devil's Gate

Devil's Gate features an alternating X pattern down the center of the bracelet.

Olive Camo

This bracelet uses Lark's Head knots on the sides with the olive and camo cords crossing back and forth down the length of the bracelet.

Gold and Black

Use 10 ft each in two contrasting colors for this bracelet weave. You'll also want to grab your lacing needle for the final steps.

Repeating Falls

This is our own variation on the endless falls style of paracord bracelet.

Zig-Zag Ringbolt Hitching Wrap

This wrap creates a nice zig-zag pattern down the length of the object you are wrapping. Finish each end with a decorative knot such as a turk's head knot to secure and hide the ends.

Chained Endless Falls

We used Type 1 paracord for this bracelet, but any size paracord can be used. We chose a small snap hook clasp and small D ring for the closure which can also be changed to a regular buckle if desired.

Jungle Princess

Here is another bracelet that uses some cow's hitch or lark's head knots.

Dark Knight's Queen

This bracelet uses the lark's head knots on each side of the bracelet with a diamond cord wrapping between each knot and a navy cord filling the spaces in the center.

Sand Drift

Here is a wide bracelet with a unique design. It will take a little time and patience, but you'll be happy with the results.

Spike Bracelet

These decorative spikes create a punk look to your bracelet. We made this adjustable bracelet with micro cord weaving around each spike to secure it.

Smooth

This is an advanced weave requiring you to twist your "core" strands. It may take some patience and some counting, but the end result is this unique, large V pattern.

Fishtail Chevron

Here is a slight variation on the regular fishtail design bracelet. You can make this with 2 or more colors. This also ends up being slightly wider than a fishtail bracelet at 3/4 inch wide.

Challenge

Don't let the name of this bracelet discourage you from trying it out. It doesn't take long to master this pattern. This bracelet has an X pattern which we alternated the colors, but you can also keep the same color on top if you prefer.

Steady Path

Here is a unique project that creates a step like pattern down the center of the bracelet.
