INSPIRATIONS: The bracelet echoes the imperial court of 1700s Russia, when RAW was used widely to create highly decorative accents of small beads and pearls on ladies' richly coloured dresses.
SKILL LEVEL: Familiarity with the basic beadweaving stitches used to create the bracelet base is essential.
STITCHES: Maria RAW accent - an elegant bracelet made using a combination of flat Herringbone stitch, Square stitch & modified Right Angle Weave (RAW). It has a clever hidden clasp that is a feature of the design.
