More Bracelets!
I’m loving these! They’re so much fun to wear, they’re practically weightless, and I can make them with leftover stash. I’ve figured out that if I do the pre-beading while Certain People With Tiny Gray Paws are asleep, I can make the bracelets themselves any time!
Yesterday I made two more! I realized after stringing the first one (white yarn with clear, silver lined beads) that Max was still asleep so I grabbed some more yarn and beads for a second one (pale, blue green yarn and matte, iridescent blue green beads). I used another pearl button for the blue green one, but for the white one I used an apple blossom button that was leftover from a cardigan. Once I had the beads pre-strung, I tied a loose knot in the end so I wouldn’t lose them and last night while I watched TV I did the knitting. I got them all finished and blocked them by the time Caleb went to bed and this morning they’re dry.
I realize the picture doesn’t really do them justice. The white one is super sparkly! Unfortunately, I had a little photography assistant “helping” me to arrange them for the shot. He did not think I should do the swirl. He thought a nice pile of them on the floor would be much nicer. I finally distracted him and got the shot, although it’s not a great one.
Here’s the Rav project page link if you need it!

Gorgeous! Any chance we could see it while being worn?
