Step 3: Start With The Threading

Take about five to six strands of silk threads on your hand. Make sure these strands of threads are not too long or it may become difficult to manage. 30 cm long strands are good enough for about any bangle. Now, start wrapping the silk thread strands around the bangle in the same direction multiple times and in an organized manner. The wrapping is crucial and if it is wrapped in a haphazard manner, the final product will look ugly. When you are done with the first batch of thread strands, tie a knot with the loose end of the silk threads and attach tip-wise with the fresh batch of thread strands and scissor of the remaining part. Do remember to tie the knot very tightly since there is every possibility that the thread will slip away owing to how silky it is. Having done that, you can continue with the wrapping process of the thread around the bangle. When the next batch is over, you just have to repeat the knot process again.
