Take an Ndebele herringbone bracelet from flat to

fabulous with a mix of matte and shiny triangle beads
by Perie Brown
This sophisticated bracelet covers all the angles.

Glinting triangle beads give the surface a fabriclike texture when stitched into a herringbone
band. Up the ante with the designers touch of
slanting stripes to create a bracelet with
unbeatable appeal.

Herringbone band
[1] Assign each of the eight triangle
bead colors a letter from AH. Determine the finished length and subtract
the length of your clasp. This will give
you the length of the beaded band.
[2] Start a 2-yd. (1.8m) length of conditioned thread (Basics, p. 164). Leaving a
12-in. (30cm) tail, use the color pattern
in figure 1 to construct a ladder (Basics)
with two beads per stack for 16 stacks.
[3] Work a row of flat Ndebele
herringbone (Basics) off the ladder
row, referring to the pattern (figure 2,
ab) for the color changes. At the end of
the row, turn as shown in figure 2, bc.
[4] Continue working in herringbone
following the pattern, until you reach
the desired length.
[5] Reinforce the last row with a
second thread path, but dont cut
the thread.
Clasp
[1] With the working thread, sew
through the first loop on the clasp and
through the thread bridge between the
first two beads in the last row
(figure 3, ab).
[2] Continue sewing through the loops
on the clasp and the thread bridges until
the clasp is secure.
[3] Repeat on the other end of the

bracelet using the 12-in. tail. w
