We love this pastel-toned polar bear weave made with 11/0 miyuki beads. Thanks to Virginie from the blog "des étoiles à la pistache", make a little family of polar bears. This weaving will be perfect to mount on a brooch and hang on a loose sweater for this fall/winter.
This weave can be made using either brickstitch or peyote techniques.
For beginners, don't hesitate to read our technical sheets to learn bead weaving.
Many thanks to Virginie for sharing the diagram.
So, what do you think? Aren't these polar bears adorable? We love them!
We love to see what you've been up to with the tutorials on Perles & Co. So don't hesitate to send us photos of your creations on our Facebook page.
