Finished Berry Cuff




This cuff is the same as the one I called the 'Egyptian' cuff. It is from the 'Bead and Button' book I posted about further down in this blog. I really love the effect with the berry coloured beads. It was quicker to make this time too, as I know what I am doing, so need to refer to the instructions less. I also made this one a bit closer fitting so it sits more like a cuff than a bracelet.

The Best Bracelet I Have Ever Made!





I am so pleased with this bracelet. It is a bit 'bling' but I love it! It is from a pattern from the new book and was very simple, if a little time-consuming. I think the colours are slightly Egyptian and the finished thing is a bit like a cuff. It is also very substantial to wear. I love it!

Although the pattern looks complicated, it is actually just two ladder-stitched 4mm cube strings joined together with loops.
