Today we've finished designing the bracelet to which the skipping rope without the handle will be directly attached. We've tried to make it hypoallergenic, comfortable and sweat proof. It will leave a place for the thumb to slip through and will have a fastening on the palm of the hand. We cut the fabric to make a pattern and created holes in the thumb. We then added an open pocket on either side of the palm for the skipping rope handle. So we've sewn a fabric pocket that's elastic enough to allow different types of handles to slip over it.
