- A YouTube video that I did for a seven-lead knot. This starts as a 3x5 and goes through a 5x9 to a 7x13. (Some other videos...)
- Two PDF documents, printable or viewable, showing progression from 3-leads to 5-leads to 7-leads, color coded, ending with 7x6 or 7x8.
- Two more PDF documents, printable or viewable, patterns to wrap around a cylinder and tie a couple examples of the cotton bracelets that I make and give away. 5x9 and 7x9
- Here's a PDF of a fairly complicated bracelet pattern to wrap around a swimming pool noodle. It's a 7x16, and should be done in #18 string, or equivalent. You can watch a Youtube video of it here.
