SILKY SQUARES BRACELET AND EARRINGS

©2015, updated 2016 Deborah Roberti

Silky Squares Bracelet at AroundTheBeadingTable.com

Step-by-step illustrated instructions for a bracelet and matching earrings pattern that uses Czech two-hole Silky beads. Directions are also included for variations on finishing the bracelet edge and for clasping with a regular single-hole clasp or a 16mm 2-strand tube bar clasp. New for 2016: Since this pattern was written in 2015, a new “Mini” 5x5mm Silky bead has been manufactured! My Silky Squares Bracelet & Earrings pattern can be easily adapted for this new Silky bead size with just a few substitutions.

Stitch: Various

Beads Used: Size 11/0 seed beads, SuperDuo beads and 2-hole Czech Silky beads

Approx Finished Size: Bracelet: about .75 inches wide to desired length. Earrings: about an inch square (not including earring findings)

Pattern Price (Downloadable PDF only): $4.50

NOTE: Bead colors and coatings (and even bead types!) seem to be disappearing at a rate that I can no longer keep up with. I try to find substitutes when I can but "discontinued" seems to be the norm these days.
