How to weave a pink October ribbon?

The pink ribbon is recognized the world over as the symbol of the fight against breast cancer and of awareness of this cause. Every year, on the occasion ofPink October, many creative and supportive actions are launched to support research and remind us of the importance of early detection.

Our partner Sophie, aka Elyconia, offers you a DIY tutorial using the BrickStitch technique. In this step-by-step guide, you'll learn how to make your own pink ribbon with beads, which you can wear as a brooch. It's a simple manual activity, accessible to all, that allows you to create a symbolic and meaningful piece of jewelry.

The only challenge is to follow the ribbon pattern correctly. But don't worry: thanks to the attached diagram, you can easily position your Miyuki Delicas 11/0 beads in the two colors required.

It's easy to make:

• The upper part forming the knot is made using the same BrickStitch technique as that used for the Russian Leaf Earrings tutorial .
• The lower part, which forms the two sides of the ribbon, also uses a basic BrickStitch. Once the two ribbons separate, simply continue weaving each part individually.

A DIY Pink October that's both creative and committed, combining hobbies and solidarity.
