    This is so awesome! By the way, did you guys know that you can do this on your fingers? just use your index and middle finger to form the 2 pegs and use your other fingers to be the hook:-)

    I can do them but for some reason I’m having to use the middle band as the bottom band when doing it keeps popping out. Help

  100. Ian says:

    Awesome video, from knowing absolutely nothing about how to make loom bracelets, I’ve learnt how to do the basic & fishtail from your videos, clear & well explained. Thank you.

  102. Sullivan says:

    Thanks so much Ashley!!! This video helped me so much and I wouldn’t be making fishtail bracelets that I love if it wasn’t for you and everybody else at Loomlove.com!

  106. Jodie says:

    You can use your finger or pencils aswell for the people who dont have looms , same for normal and inverted fishtail . My friends say they use 2 forks for star wearver.

  113. Charlotte says:

    P.S That’s really for every loom band????

  117. Shosh says:

    Thanks, Ashley! Great job! I used your video to help my 8-year-old son make his first bracelet. Your instructions and pictures were really clear and easy to follow. Now he is finishing the bracelet himself.

  119. Naomi says:

    Question.
    I’ve made 3 fishtail bracelets & before I finished it off I plaited them. It looks great but how do I connect them together & finish off?
    Looking forward to your advice
    Thanks

  120. Lauren says:

    Coming to loom bands on the loom I am a really noob! This guide is amazing and I knew how to do it in seconds!

  129. Rachel says:

    I was always confused on how to make a fishtail. Now, I 100% understand how to make one! This is so awesome and easy!!

  131. Nat Lockwood says:

    Thank you ever so much! I’m 30 years old yet was totally baffled by these charming bracelets and how they are made! I have always been extremely creative including having qualifications in different creative and qualifications in different creative genres as well as having been a photographer, musician, basic web designer, artist as well as alter clothing into unique styles and have VERY quirky hair Sykes and colours! Yet, I could never do the hair we apps which were all the rage in the 90s and Scoobies had me confused also, but to be fair was never show tghose arts. i was even given a loom band and still stood looking at them confused! I thought I’d come across another complicated thing that kids can do but I can’t not be shown as I dit. Have kids of my own, yet it can be really simple! Thanks ever so much for showing and explaining so clearly, so I can join this fun fad too!! X

  138. Harley says:

    I love this website and video! Me and my little brother forgot how to make these now we know how again! Thanks a ton from us both!

  142. Gaga says:

    This 79-year old Gaga just learned something new. Now I will teach my granddaughter how to make these. Thank you so much. You made a clear presentation with very good instructions and easy-to-follow steps. You are a very good teacher.

  143. Reagan says:

    I think I might have made my own fishtail design but I’m not sure. All you do is alternate between fishtail dnf inverted fishtail. You hook over the bottom bnd like a fishtail, add your next band, then pull the bottom band through the middle band like an inverted fishtail. You just repeat that until it is long enough. Do you know if this has already been created?
