  1. Pick up a 4 mm pearl, and
    sew through the open hole of the
    next Kite (e–f). Repeat this stitch
    16 times (f–g) for this edge.

  2. Pick up four 15 0 s (or the same
    number added in step 6), and
    sew through the next 3 mm pearl,
    SuperDuo, and 3 mm pearl (g–h).

  3. Pick up a 15 0 , and sew
    through the next 4 mm pearl
    (figure 4, a–b).

    and sew through the next 4 mm
    pearl (b–c). Repeat this step 15
    times (c–d). Pick up a 15 0 , and
    sew through the next 3 mm pearl
    (d–e). Retrace the thread path back
    through the center embellishment
    to exit the center 3 mm pearl on
    the opposite end (e–f). Continue


through the following SuperDuo
and 3 mm pearl (f–g).
11) Repeat steps 6–8, and then sew
through the next SuperDuo (g–h).
12) Pick up eight 15 0 s, skip the
next 3 mm pearl, and sew through
the previous SuperDuo, going in
the same direction, and the follow-
ing 3 mm pearl and SuperDuo,
to form a loop (figure 5, a–b).
Retrace the thread path through

the loop, and continue through
the next 3 mm pearl (b–c).
13) Sew through the next four
150 s, the beads along the outside
edge, the following four 15 0 s, the
3 mm pearl, the SuperDuo, the
3 mm pearl, and the SuperDuo.
Work as in step 12 to add a loop
on this end, and end the threads.

the clasp and the loop on one end

of the bracelet. Repeat to attach the
other half of the clasp to the other
end of the bracelet. B&B
