I've bought a little packet of O-beads, without any idea how to use them. Then the other day I came to this: a timeless pattern with only rings and chains.
OB = O-Bead 4mm
CWJ = Catherine Wheel Join
vsp = very small picot
Thread: I've used metallic gold DMC 282, that is like a size 70 thread.
If you are wondering where those beads come from, this is a link:

Load CTM 2 shuttles, beads aren't loaded on shuttles but joined with a normal upper join.
Start with a ring: 4ds, OB, 4ds, vsp, 4ds, OB, 4ds.
(*) Chain 12ds ; Ring: 4ds, normal join to previous bead, 4ds, vsp, 4ds, OB, 4ds.
Repeat from (*) for your desidered lenght.
Turning for the second part: Chain 12ds; CWJ to last bead; Ring with SH2: 10ds; CWJ to the same last bead;
Second side: (**) Chain 12ds ; lock join to the vsp of the ring below. Repeat for all the length.
The opposite end is the same as the turning side. Finish with a chain tied at the base of the very first ring.
This bracelet actually has already one matching earring, I'm doing the second and I'll show you soon.

ReplyDeleteIt doesn't have to be complicated to be lovely. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteBello e prezioso l'accostamento oro/rosso; le perline ad anello, finora, non le avevo mai viste utilizzate in un gioiello. Cercherò e proverò. Grazie, Antonia C.
