Ignoring the bottom part as you go, count up to 6. Once you get to six, start untangling. Look at the bottom piece, the strand that’s on top should go through the hole. Follow the strand with the end of the bracelet.

Once you’ve followed through that end, your ends should look like this. Take the right strand & smooth it out. the end will want to go in between the right & middle strands. Once you’ve untangled that, start your second set of 6. You might need to untangle as you go as you run out of room.
