HEART BEAD BRACELET

Send

This workshop is more suitable for beginners. After all, there is nothing easier than to weave baubles from beads crosswise. Only today we will weave a bracelet in two rows and with hearts.

We will need large beads in two shades, scissors and fishing line (1 m). You can add weaving with metallic beads.

This is how the general scheme of weaving a bracelet looks like.

We start by stringing 4 beads of the main (background) color at one end. In the last bead we thread the other end of the fishing line. The weave is tightened in the center.

Next, we string one bead on both ends and stretch the ends through another one. So weave 8 crosses.

We came to the moment when we need to weave hearts from pink beads. The weaving pattern is no different, only you need to alternate the main color with pink.
We string a white bead on the left end of the fishing line, on the right pink one and weave both ends in pink.

Weave a full cross of pink beads.

We finish weaving the heart as we started only at the end, weave both ends in white bead.

We weave two crosses of the main color and again weave the heart. There are 5 hearts in the bracelet. You can weave less or more, or change the interval in the form of crosses. From the last heart should go another 8 crosses or more. The size of the bracelet depends on the diameter of the wrist.

Here is the first row of the bracelet.

Weave the second and last row of the bracelet. String 3 beads on the left end and thread through the last right end of the fishing line.

Always thread the fishing line through the free bead in the first row, and string 2 beads of the main color on the extreme end. Through the last we pierce the left end. After the cross is formed, the left end must always be threaded through the bead in the first row.

In the second row we finish weaving hearts. On the last cross, the main color of the bead, through which we thread both ends, should be pink.

Weave a pink cross.

String the bead of the main color on the left end, and thread both ends through the pink.

Weaving a pink cross again. On this we finish weaving the heart and weaving further with the main color to the next heart.

This is what a woven bracelet looks like.

Now you need to connect both ends. String one bead and stretch them through the bead on the opposite side of the bracelet. A cross forms.

We draw the ends through neighboring beads to the right and pierce through another one. Tighten and tie to several knots. We cut off the excess fishing line.
