Beadweaving Pattern #1

Tangled Vines by Robin Cowart

This is fast and fabulous! Add four rows of simple swags to a strung core of beads for a lush bracelet or necklace rope. Use different clasps or toggles for added interest. This project makes a bracelet. To make a longer rope for a necklace, increase the amount of beads and wire. To make both, be sure to double your crimps and clasps.

Beadweaving Pattern #2

Urban Chic by Barbara Richard

Learn how to make sophisticated peyote-stitched bezels for gemstone beads with this free project. Weave peyotestitched bezels for three pyrite ovals, then string them into a simple necklace to create an understated but versatile look for day or evening wear.

Beadweaving Pattern #3

Fool for Stripes by Marlene Blessing

Make a statement with this herringbone stitch tube necklace! The striped pattern on the herringbone tube in this necklace is symmetrical when woven, but becomes asymmetrical when the entire piece is assembled and worn with the heart-and-key clasp to the side.

Beadweaving Pattern #4

Double Twist by Sheilah Cleary

Beaded ropes never go out of style! Try this free project to see how you can use two highly contrasting colors of seed beads in a double spiral rope.

Beadweaving Pattern #5

Cubed Diamonds by Sally Morgan

This unique bead-weaving project is a fabulous way to learn how create geometric shapes with brick stitch. Cube beads stack up neatly and have large holes that allow for multiple thread passes. It's a portable project—you can take some beads with you and whip together the individual diamonds that you can then assemble later at home. I find I can make six diamonds in an hour without taking my whole project with me when I am going to a meeting or waiting for something.
