Instructions in 6 steps Rocailles beads in copper, metallic and grey colours – once strung and knotted according to the instructions – turn into this chic bracelet. And this is how it works:

Step 1

Firstly, thread the strand with big hole Rocailles. Thread the 60 cm long cord into the needle and then push it into the middle. Secure the cord ends together with a knot. Thread on 20 big hole Rocailles, then cut off the cord close to the needle.

Step 2

Thread 40 metallic matt Rocailles on each of the two 90 cm long cords. Secure one cord end with a knot, cut off diagonally the other end, then thread it on directly.

Step 3

Hold flush the strand with big hole Rocailles, the three 30 cm long cords and the both cords threaded with metallic Rocailles and fix them with some wire.

Step 4

Lay on, right and left, both of the long cords and place the three 30 cm long cords under the strand with the big hole Rocailles. Set a reef knot with both of the long cords (see figure).

Step 5

The Rocailles will be knottedas follows: slide upwards, right and left, each of the 2 metallic Rocailles and set one more reef knot. Continuously repeat it until all Rocailles are knotted up. Define the desired bracelet length, if necessary knot some Rocailles more.
