Friendship bracelet charts: chevron, diamond and candy stripe

Friendship bracelets are knotted from embroidery floss, and a chart shows which knot goes where, so the colours move into chevrons, diamonds and stripes. These nine cover a chevron, a diamond and a candy stripe. Each knot is a circle with an arrow for its direction. Each comes as a colour chart, a symbol chart, or a hand-drawn diagram. Type a different colour way or motif and the same knot diagram carries it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
