Kandi — the bead-based internet phenomenon

Kandi bracelets are vivid, pony-bead creations that swept through early internet forums and EDM culture. Makers string phrases, icons, and charms together, then swap them during raves as part of the PLUR (Peace, Love, Unity, Respect) handshake. Each trade marks a moment of connection and a keepsake that stacks up your story on both wrists.

✦Patterns often start in online bead generators before being woven by hand with stretchy cord.
✦Multi-strand "Kandi cuffs" show off advanced ladder or peyote stitches for extra texture.
✦Kandi tutorials thrive on TikTok, YouTube, and Discord where makers share trades and mail swaps.
