Netted Handflower

Netted Handflower







For this project, you will need to read through the instructions and diagrams first if you are not familar with increasing and decreasing in vertical netting. If you are familar with it, just skip to the last page which has the graph. This technique is really a lot simpler then it seems in explaining it. Just try it. I can make these bracelets now in about 45 minutes so I have a bunch of them in lots of colors! Done in blues and crystal ABīs they are lovely for brides!

You will need
size 11 seed beads
4 mm fire polish crystals (around 100, maybe a few more or less depending on the size of your hand)
Beading needle
Silamide

I always double my thread for these for strength.

Start by stringing a stop bead,leave the ends long enough to weave back in. Then string a 4 mm, then nine seed beads, if your going to string on your clasp while weaving it like I did, do it now, then a 4 mm, 4 size 11īs, and string back through the first 4 mm, string 5 size 11īs, a 4 mm, 4 size 11īs, then go through the 4 mm crystal. (see diagram below)







Continue working in that pattern for 2-3 inches, 5 seed beads, 4 mm crystal, 4 seeds, down through the 4 mm from the last "row".

When your ready to start increasing, insead of adding 5 beads when you go through the 4 mm at the top, add 4 seeds, a 4 mm crystal, 10 seeds, 4 mm crystal, 4 seeds, then go through the 4 mm added first, then 4 seed, a 4 mm crystal, 4 seeds, and down through the 4 mm at the bottom.
