So, this is not an original tutorial. The full and very informative version is here. Even if you don't want the tutorial, you should check it out. I highly recommend it.
Anyway, onto how I made my very own fabric bangles.
I bought some cheap jersey fabric from JoAn's. Bonus, they were having a really great sale and it was all half off.
To make the bangles, you cut your strips of fabric 1-inch wide, the long way. Cut several pieces of each, since you will probably use more than one for a bracelet (unless you have really small wrists).
The process to actually make the bracelet only involved the fabric and your hand. I was a little nervous that it was going to be complicated, but once I got started with one, the rest were super simple to make. I don't have step-by-step pictures, but like I said, Pink Pistachio has a very informative video.
And there you have it! Super simple, super cute, and super cheap. You really can't beat it. What I found helpful though, was to count how many times I made a knot, and then I could know exactly how many would fit my wrist. The first couple are a little big, but once I figured out the number, they were perfect. Happy crafting!
