How to make right angle weave stitch bracelet:

Step 1: Make base bracelet with turquoise and glass bicone

1st, cut a 80cm length of tiger tail wire, thread it through a jump ring and cross both end through a large turquoise bead;
2nd, add 2 small turquoise beads to both end and cross them through a pink glass bicone;
3rd, tighten wire, add 2 small turquoise beads to both ends and cross them through a large turquoise bead;
4th, use the right angle weave stitch to repeat the beading process;
5th, place pink glass bicone onto 11th position and change the alternate order from there;
6th, after finishing 18th bead, the base bracelet is long enough;
7th, thread right end through a jump ring and back through the last strung turquoise bead, tighten wire.

Step 2: Add wave pattern with golden beads

1st, add beads to both ends in the order: 3 golden metal beads, 1 golden acrylic bicone and another 2 metal beads;
2nd, thread wire through the small turquoise bead and large turquoise bead at 3rd position;
3rd, tighten both ends and continue beading;
4th, stop at the 11th position, add 1 metal bead, 1 acrylic bicone and 1 metal in order to both ends, and thread wire through small turquoise and large one at 12th position;
5th, back to previous beading way (1st-2nd );
6th, at last position, needless to cross through the last turquoise bead, just tie a firm knot there and back through wire ends through previous beads;
