Using two needles to create a piece works wonderfully with a symmetrical pattern. Students will make a multi-layered  bracelet with an X & O (kisses & hugs) pattern. Using two needles to combine crystal pearls, seed beads and crystal bicones in symmetrical layers is fun, fast and incredibly satisfying. The resulting piece is an absolute work of art!

In  session one, basics of beading ~ setting up a space, tools needed and best  practices for beaders ~ will be reviewed. Participants will learn the pattern of  this basic stitch and how to manage two separate needles. Students will  reinforce and gain comfort with this technique by completing an assigned  amount of the project during the week before the last session.

Session two of exploring ladder stitch will begin with sharing personal successes and trials experienced to this point. Beaders will embellish their bracelets and add a simple magnetic clasp to finish their masterpiece!

Kits will include everything to make one bracelet. Please verify your mailing address when you register.

Students will need to supply scissors and a tape measure.
