This is a downloadable pdf, no beads will be sent. This is not the finished bracelet. You will receive a pdf of how to create this bracelet yourself.

This is an advanced tutorial. You must be proficient in cubic right angle weave to be successful with this tutorial.

A double sided ndebele medallion creates the center of this beautiful bracelet. A 4 column high ladder stitch starts the medallions and spokes are worked off of each side of the ladder. Beads are placed between the spines in graduated numbers and a crystal tip is added to the last round. Each side of the medallion is beaded with different beads between the spines to make a reversible bracelet.

Two lengths of cubic right angle weave in size 11 beads are studded with cubes of 3 mm crystals at varying intervals create the bracelet

A square stitch clasp with tear dropped pearl ends is woven with an opening at one end. Each side of the clasp is pushed through the end openings on the bracelet, and one pearl is then pushed through the opening on the ladder stitch. This makes a secure clasp which can be removed and inserted on the opposite side of the bracelet to wear the reverse side.
