Mesa Verde Loom Bracelet

PROJECT B772
Designer: Julie Bean
Skill Level: Intermediate
This pretty loom bracelet uses a designer-curated Miyuki round color palette featuring pink, cream, and green beads. The pattern can easily be made longer simply by adding extra rows of stripes on the ends.
Note: We have replaced the unavailable palette with individual Toho rounds in similar colors.
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.

The loomed portion of this design measures 5.5 inches and the clasp adds anywhere from half an inch to three inches depending upon where you latch it (it is adjustable). Please note you will also want a scrap piece of wire or toothpick to apply your glue.
  1. To make this bracelet, you will be watching a series of videos. You will also be following the loom pattern that goes with the project.
  2. Thread 8 feet of nymo thread onto you loom needle.
  3. To begin, please watch the video: How to Use the Jewel Loom Beading Loom. From what you learn in this video, please thread your loom with 12 warp threads so that you can create a beaded piece that is 11 beads wide.
  4. Following what you learned in the video and your pattern, do the beadwork on your loom. When you get to within 15 inches of thread, please watch the video: How to Tie Off and Add More Thread in Loom Work. You will need to add another length of thread, again make it around 8 feet long. Add your thread and continue beading. When you are all done, tie your weft threads off and work in their tales.
  5. To finish off your beadwork and remove it from the loom, please watch the video: How to Finish Off Traditional Loom Work and Add a Slider Clasp.
  6. If at any time during this project you get confused, there is also a video titled: How to Make the Beaded Loom Bracelet Kits by Beadaholique that will show you all the steps in one video.
