TWIN CUBE WAVE BAND

©2012, updated 2018 Deborah Roberti

Use size 11/0 seed beads, 3mm cube beads and two-hole beads to create this fabulous bracelet. It is fully illustrated with detailed step-by-step instructions.

New for 2018: Since I created this design in 2012, a number of new two-hole beads have appeared on the bead scene. SuperDuo and MiniDuo beads work especially well as a substitute for Twin beads in this design so I have added photos, substitution instructions and materials needed to the pattern. For those who purchased the pattern before this update, you can download an Addendum by clicking HERE:

Stitch: ladder stitch

Beads Used: Size 11 and 8 seed beads, 3mm cube beads, Twin beads, SuperDuo or MiniDuo beads

NOTE: Bead colors and coatings (and even bead types!) seem to be disappearing at a rate that I can no longer keep up with. I try to find substitutes when I can but "discontinued" seems to be the norm these days.
