1️⃣ The bracelet is 18 cm long + (3.5 cm - 4 cm for the clasp). I used 3 mm nylon thread. The main main thread is about 3 meters long and the additional thread is 2 meters - 2 meters 10 cm long.

2️⃣ Panno Steps for calculating thread: Choose a factor:

4: for simple patterns or openwork weaves,6: for dense patterns or patterns of medium complexity. 8-10: for very intricate patterns.

Calculate: Thread length per strand = (Bracelet length in cm) × (Pattern complexity factor).

Total thread length = (Thread length per strand) × (Number of threads).

Add extra: Total thread length = (Total thread length) + 15% (or 20%) extra.

Example:

Bracelet Length: 16 cm

Number of Strands: 8

Pattern: Medium complexity, use a factor of 6

16 cm × 6 = 96 cm (length per strand)

96 cm × 8 = 768 cm (total strand length)

768 cm + 15% = 768 cm + 115.2 cm = 883
