Instructions

This pattern creates a beautiful bracelet featuring five interconnected ‘Tree of Life’ motifs. The inner tree is worked in brown, framed by a vibrant green oval border.

A. Tree of Life Motif (Make 5)

1. Inner Tree (Brown Yarn)

Start with a MR.
R1 (Trunk Base): Ch 1, work 5 sc into the MR. Pull tail to close ring. Join with sl st to first sc. (5 sc)
R2 (Branches):
- Sl st into 1st sc, Ch 3, sl st into same sc.
- Sl st into 2nd sc, Ch 4, sl st into same sc.
- Sl st into 3rd sc, Ch 5, sl st into same sc.
- Sl st into 4th sc, Ch 4, sl st into same sc.
- Sl st into 5th sc, Ch 3, sl st into same sc.
Fasten off brown yarn, weave in ends securely. (This completes the brown tree center).

2. Outer Oval (Green Yarn)

Join green yarn with a sl st to the 3rd sc of R1 of the brown tree (this is the base of the longest Ch 5 branch).
R1 (Shaping Round): Ch 1 (does not count as st).
- Work (sc, hdc) into the same 3rd sc.
- Work 2 dc over the first Ch 4 branch (working around the chain, not into the loops).
- Work 3 tr over the first Ch 3 branch.
- Work 2 tr into the 1st sc of brown R1 (the base of the shortest Ch 3 branch on that side).
- Work 3 tr over the next Ch 3 branch.
- Work 2 dc over the next Ch 4 branch.
- Work (hdc, sc) into the 3rd sc of R1 of the brown tree.
- Join with sl st to the first sc. (Approx. 18 sts).
R2 (Finishing Border): Ch 1. Sc in each st around. Make 2 sc in the 3rd and 12th st of this round to maintain the oval shape. Join with sl st to first sc. (Approx. 20 sts). Fasten off green yarn, leaving a long tail (approx. 12 inches) for sewing.

B. Assembling the Bracelet

Once all 5 motifs are complete, you will assemble them and add the tie strings.

1. Sewing Motifs: Arrange the 5 completed Tree of Life motifs in a line. Using the long green tails and a tapestry needle, carefully sew the motifs together at their widest points along R2 of the green border. Ensure the joining points are secure and flush against each other, resembling the image. Weave in any remaining ends.
2. Tie Strings:
- Tie 1: Attach green yarn to one end of the assembled motif chain (e.g., to the center top stitch of the R2 of the green border of the first motif). Ch 30. Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across (29 sc). Sl st back into the motif’s border to secure. Fasten off.
- Tie 2: Repeat for the other end of the motif chain, attaching green yarn to the corresponding center top stitch of the last motif’s R2 border.
