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.

This bracelet measures approximately 6.5 inches. To modify the length, simply adjust the length woven respectively.
  1. To see a similar design, please watch our video: How to do a Modified Right Angle Weave with Two Hole Beads. From what you learned in this video, begin the weaving with the superduo beads and pearls. Instead of building it sideways so that it is double wide, simply continue in one long strand.
  2. Once you have achieved your desired length, use the tail to attach the cymbal bead ending. Coming out of one pearl, thread thru one hole of the ending. Then string on a seed bead. Turn your needle around and go back through the ending and the pearl to come out the other side of the ending. This will trap the seed bead into place. Thread on one more seed bead and thread back through this side of the ending and through the pearl. Now thread back into the right angle weave to tie off and weave in your thread. Repeat on the other side of the bracelet.
  3. Finally, open one jump ring and attach one end of the magnetic clasp to one ending. Repeat on the other side.
