| Hey, this step looks familiar! Just as in step two, make a circle by crossing through the druk. |
| Work your way down the bracelet repeating steps 5-6, anchoring the new work to the old stuff by using the two edge beads on the previously woven bit. |
| Now, here's a fun little quirk with this bracelet--it has texture. If you keep a tight enough tension, you can coax peaks and furrows to form. I'm not sure how well you can see in the pictures, but try to put the new rows on the work at a 90 degree angle. Instead of working flat, try to work... uhmmm...zig-zag! Don't worry if it doesn't quite work out--we can fix that in the next few steps. |
| Continue to add rows until you're satisfied with the width. I recommend using an even number of rows. If you've kept the right tension, you should be able to see a zig-zag pattern as in the picture (okay, so it's exagerrated slightly, but you get the idea!) |
| Now, if you're anything like me, sometimes even the easy things don't turn out! If your bracelet doesn't quite peak and furrow to your liking, simply take a thin piece of thread, and put on one needle (about time!). Secure your thread to one edge of the bracelet, and then go through all the druks in one column (as shown by the red dots). Keeping a tight tension, skip to the next column and go through all those druks (as shown by the blue dots). Continue, and pull tight--viola! Peaks and furrows! |
| That's all, folks! Put on a clasp (I prefer the big and ornate ones for this, but that's just me), and go out and impress people :-) |
| Peaks and furrows? Are you crazy?! |
| Hmm... about that easy part... |
| Hurray for goodwill! |
