The Round Lace Bracelet Pattern is one of my favorite free bead patterns. The bracelet pattern has been used many ways. You can even add a crystal in the middle. At the end of this pattern I have added several Customer images to show how creative they are and you can see how many ways it has been used. Hope you enjoy making this cute fun bracelet.
February 20, 2015, I have done an updated version of this bracelet which is faster and easier to do with the same look. You can find it here.

Start by waxing and stretching your thread, use Nymo D
or C-Lon & a #11 or #12 beading needle. Tie in a
“stopper” bead, leaving about an 8” tail and begin at
step #1. *Fireline 4 or 6lb. crystal fishing line also
works great for bead weaving.
