How to Weave Authentic Hawaiian Lauhala Bracelets: A Step by Step Guide (Traditional Hawaiian Crafts)

Lauhala fans cool us on still
days, lauhala bags keep our
valuables safe, and lauhala hats
shelter us from the sun. In fact,
the hala, or Pandanus, was one
of the most versatile trees in
ancient Hawai'i: it was used
for medicine, for food, and for
crafting sleeping mats, baskets,
and the sails of outrigger canoes.

In How to Weave Authentic
Hawaiian Lauhala Bracelets,
expert craftsman Jim Widess
teaches you how to weave
beautiful bracelets from the leaves of the hala tree. There are
19 different lauhala projects in
all, including a lauhala hairband,
a lauhala rose, and a lauhala ball.

Each project is accompanied
by step-by-step instructions and
color illustrations that guide you
through selecting and dethorning
the prickly leaves, shaping the
foundation coil, and weaving
patterns and designs into the
bracelet. From the bold geometry
of the Reverse Twill Bracelet
to the whimsy of the Pinwheel
Bracelet, there is something in these pages to satisfy crafters
of every ability. There s even a
DIY alternative to the popular
Hawaiian bracelets: a ku'uipo
bracelet made entirely of lauhala!
