Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

Create a square stitch bracelet with the Gatsby Palette.
  1. Please watch the video: How to Do Square Stitch Bead Weaving. This video will teach you what you need to know to create the bracelet.
  2. Make sure to leave a tail long enough to incorporate the clasp into your design.
  3. The first row will be all black beads from the palette. The second row will be silver beads. Third row: white beads. Fourth row: gold beads.
  4. Repeat this pattern of rows until the bracelet is the desired length, keeping in mind the clasp will add about 1 1/2 inches of length.
  5. Attach one half of the clasp to one end of the bracelet using two jump rings linked together. Repeat on the other end of the bracelet.
