No ghosts or ghouls in this cheerful Halloween loom bracelet! Cheeky pumpkins, cats, and hovering bats are woven using a festive holiday color palette of Miyuki round seed beads, with an added picot fringe of transparent green. The bracelet is finished with a sleek black beadslide clasp.
Reboot: We have rebooted this fun Halloween project using Toho round seed beads. Please note that there might be a slight color difference between the beads in the photo and the new selection of Toho beads, but they are very similar and still very Halloweeny.

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 7 inches total. To modify the length, adjust the number of units woven.

If you are new to loom weaving, begin by watching the video: How to Use the Jewel Loom Beading Loom. You will use size D Nymo to set up your loom as shown in the video. For this pattern you will need 16 warp threads.
Once your loom is set up, thread your loom needle with a length of Nymo as long as you are comfortable working with. You will need to tie off and add new thread to your loom weaving as you work.
Follow the pattern shown in the illustration to create 6.5 inches of loom weaving, or continue the pattern to your desired length.
To create the picot beaded edge, please watch the video: How to Add a Beaded Edge to Loom Work. Using what you have learned in the video, work your way back up along the sides of your loom weaving to add the green picot edge, 3 beads per stitch (see photo for reference).
To finish off your bracelet and attach your clasp, please watch the video: How to Finish Off Traditional Loom Work and Add a Slider Clasp. Follow along with the video to tie off the threads of your bracelet. For added clarity, you may want to watch the video How to Add a Beadslide Clasp to Loom Work. Attach your beadslide clasp as shown in the video. Enjoy your bracelet!
