Well someone taught me, but I can attempt to explain it to you.
Right, so first, you need three straws. Cut them so they are all about 4 inches. Then get a piece of tape and tape the three straws together at the top.
Get a suppper long string of yarn. A little less than a yard. Then, tie it around one of the outer straws.
Ok now here's the weaving part...lets say you tied the string on the left straw.....you would pass the string under the middle straw and then OVER the far right straw...then wrap it around the right straw so you can pass the string UNDER the middle straw...continue that weving pattern.
When you are done, tie the string around one of the straws (like in the beginning)
now, cut 3 pieces of yarn, as long as you want the bracelet to be. (make aure you leave extra room for tying)
pass one yarn THROUGH one straw, and continue with the other two straws.
When you are done, make a knot at the top end (the end where the tape is) leaving space to tie the bracelet.
Remove the tape from the straws.
pull the straws out from the weaved bracelet.
Tie a knot to finish it off.
It's kind of hard to explain without any pictures, but if you have any questions, you can ask me!
