Question

Do you use the next first color after your first one?

Community Answer

Yes. If you do use a different color by accident, don't worry--it won't make a big difference in the finished result.

Question

What do I do after I finish one color?

Community Answer

You move on to another. After about 10-15 knots on the first one, move to the second one and then repeat until you have enough for a full bracelet.

Question

What do I do if I run out of one of the colors?

Community Answer

If you can, tie more string onto the bottom of the strand that is too short. If you can't find the exact color, you could use a similar color. This could also be a cool experiment.

Question

After the first color is done, will the second string automatically shift to the front, or will I have to put it there?

Community Answer

You'll need to do a little configuration and move the string yourself. It'll look funky at first but after you tie the first knot, it'll settle into place.

Question

By doing the Chinese staircase, does it help your hands get less cramped?

Community Answer

No, it's just basically a different style for fashion and craft purposes. So, it won't actually help prevent hand cramps.
