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.

Measure your wrist before you begin so that you can decide how long you will want your bracelet to be. The cuff style looks best with a somewhat snug fit. Keep in mind that the strand reducers and clasp will add about an inch to the length.
  1. Begin by cutting as long of a length of white Wildfire beading thread as you are comfortable working with. I like to work with about 6' of thread at a time, but find the length that feels comfortable to you. Thread a size 12 beading needle with the length of thread. You will need to end your thread and begin a new one once or twice while weaving this bracelet. Watch the video: How to Tie Off and Add a New Thread in Bead WeavingHow to Tie Off and Add a New Thread in Bead Weaving to learn how.
  2. Watch the video: How to Bead Weave an Openwork Style Tila Bead Bracelet. This video will show you how to weave together your Miyuki Tila beads and size 11/0 Delica beads in this openwork style stitch. Follow the instructions given in the video to complete your bracelet. The video will also explain how to attach strand reducers and a clasp to your bracelet.
