How to make a multi-row bracelet with Miyuki?
Today, we present you a new model of bracelet in Miyuki to customize according to your desires. This bracelet is divided into two parts: A first part made of beads weaving on a loom and a second part made of multiple threads and colored braids with a simple beads threading. These two parts are fixed on Hiilos clasp tips. These are ringless tips that fit inside the Hiilos interchangeable clasps. This way, you can keep the same clasp for several different bracelets that you can easily combine and replace.
For example, you can make this bracelet several times in different colors and with a different message and buy only one Hiilos clasp for all these bracelets. Hiilos clasps come in different sizes. This one is the medium size. You can wear the miyuki weave alone with the small clasp or have a very large bracelet with 3 parts instead of 2 with the large clasp. It comes in gold, rose gold, silver, black, pink, yellow, blue and are made of ABS and not metal, which makes them very light and comfortable to wear.
If you don't want to use Hiilos clasps, then use end caps with rings and attach a simple lobster clasp to them.
To avoid making you buy several different strands, weaving wire is also used for bead strands, but it is doubled. Do not put heavy beads on it, as it is not made for it. If you have Fireline wire at home, prefer to use this for beading wire, double it too, or Linhasita wire 0.5 mm.
Measure your wrist. The size of the weave is 14.5 cm. You need to make the weave the same size as your wrist or a little larger. The clasp will add ease so that the bracelet is not too tight. If the original design is too small, adjust it by repeating the flower pattern at the beginning and end. 1 flower is about 5mm wide. So if you need to make 15.5 cm of weave, add 1 flower on each side of the bracelet. If it's 16, go with 16.5 for simplicity and add 2 flowers on each side. It is better to make the bracelet too big than too small. See diagram.
