'Bands of 15 - Christmas crackers'

This is a slightly more advanced pattern and is the fourth in my 'Band of 15s' series.

I have used size 11 miyuki rocailles as the base for this bangle but the bands are size 15s. It gives a slightly different texture to a rope made only with size 11s and gives a bit of definition where the crackers are formed.

There is not repeat with this pattern, it is continued, as I have had to alter the ''snowflake'' area of pattern each time so that they line up. 

If you were to make the bracelet with 11s instead of 15s they will not line up exactly due to the change in size twisting around the rope more.

I have stated this as a slightly more advanced as it is a little tricky to place the 15s and keep within the pattern. But if you concentrate on the beads in which to place your needle you should be ok.

I have given instructions to complete the bracelet including the end caps, but you can choose the ending you prefer.

The peyote rope has an 10 bead circumference and has a double column seam. 

My pattern is made with Christmas colours of red, white, green and black with silver bands in 15s. 

There are 13 pages of instructions with word chart to download.

You will need experience of working peyote as well as the peyote with a twist technique.

This relatively new technique was devised by Gerlinde Lenz and lends itself to many beautiful patterns. 

The pattern is in English only.

The pattern is not an instant download but I will email it to you in PDF format as soon as possible after payment. I will send the file to your Paypal email address unless informed otherwise.
