Bracelet Pattern
To create a pattern for a bracelet, you can use specialized programs for beading. For my bracelet, I used the program Bead Tool 4. This program can be used for free without a save function or you can buy a paid service package.

Preparing the Loom
For the base, we collect the required number of threads on the loom, we pull it like strings. The number of these threads must correspond to the number of beads along the width of the product + 1 thread. There are 11 beads in our bracelet, which means we collect 12 threads. They are located at a width sufficient for a convenient location of the beads.
Start of Weaving
Now we thread a long thread into the needle. At the end of the thread we fix the thread with a knot. We place it from the side of the extreme warp thread.
According to the drawing scheme, we collect the required number of beads on the needle for the first row of weaving, move them to the knot and press them under the stretched warp threads from below so that each bead falls between two threads.
We unfold the needle and pass it through all the beads so that the needle passes over the warp threads. Now tighten the thread, but not too tight.
Thus, two threads, below and above, will hold the beads on the warp threads. Fastening the first row is the most difficult moment in loom weaving. When you have completed the first row, align all the beads in a horizontal line.
Then string on the beads for the second row. Pass it under the warp threads from below. Press the beads into the gaps between the strands.
Pass the needle through the beads in the opposite direction over the warp threads. In the same way, weave to the end.
Pattern Formation Process
After a while, you can observe the formation of a bead pattern according to the original pattern.
Removing the Bracelet From the Loom
After you have finished weaving a beaded bracelet, you need to remove it from the loom. From each end of the bracelet, cut all the threads.
Then every two threads in turn need to be knitted with several knots and cut off.
Clasp Installation
When we finished the bracelet at the ends on both sides, you need to install clasps.
The Result of the Work Done
Then you can enjoy the finished result. This jewelry will delight you and your family ones!
