A friendship bracelet is a decorative bracelet given by one person to another as a symbol of friendship. Friendship bracelets are often handmade, usually of embroidery floss or thread and are a type of macramé.. There are various styles and patterns, but most are based on the same simple half-hitch knot. Modern friendship bracelets can also be made with silicone beads, which are soft and comfortable to wear. They represent a friendship that is strong and everlasting.

The amount of thread used in the traditional friendship bracelets varies depending on the pattern. The smallest pattern, a double chain knot, requires two strings while the candy stripe can have three or more strings depending on the desired thickness.

History

Friendship bracelets are ancient, but their resurgence is modern. The modern popularity of friendship bracelets started in the 1980s when they were seen during protests about the disappearances of Mayan Indians and peasants in Guatemala. The friendship bracelets were brought into the United States by religious groups for use in political rallies.

Friendship bracelets can have many meanings and symbolic uses, such as friendship, folk art, or social statements.  Although it is generally accepted that the origins of these colorful bands lie with the indigenous people of Central and South America, some decorative knots can be traced back to China from 481 to 221 BC.

Friendship bracelets first became popular in the United States during the 1970s. As they are unisex, they are commonly worn by both male and female teenagers and children. They are now popular throughout the world. Friendship bracelets can be worn on various occasions; for example, they are ideal as a fashion accessory at the beach because they are made of materials that will not be easily destroyed and with which one can swim freely.[

Friendship bracelets have experienced a surge in popularity since 2023, attributed to American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift's song "You're on Your Own, Kid" from her tenth studio album Midnights (2022). Inspired by the lyric "So make the friendship bracelets / Take the moment and taste it / You've got no reason to be afraid", Swift's fans made friendship bracelets to gift or trade to each other at her Eras Tour concerts,as well as screenings of the accompanying concert film.

According to tradition, one ties a bracelet onto the wrist of a friend as a symbol of friendship and may wish for something at that moment. The bracelet should be worn until it is totally worn out and falls off by itself to honour the hard work and love put into making it. The moment at which the band falls off on its own, the wish is supposed to come true.
