Inspired by Celtic rope designs, the interwoven arms of this bracelet are made with Layered Right Angle Weave (LRAW) and Faux Cubic Right Angle Weave (CRAW). Two layers of right angle weave, offset from each other, nestle together to make a sturdy but flexible rope. Using 8/o beads on one side give a gentle curve to the rope and two clasps let the winding design continue throughout the entire piece.
This is an advanced beginner to intermediate project. You will need 3mm pearls and 3mm bicone crystals along with seed beads. Previous knowledge of right angle weave is not required but would be very helpful.
