This bracelet is going to be a base for a beaded ivy vine. But I liked it by itself so much that I wanted to scan it before I put the leaves on. This time the scan shows some of the brightness of the silver-lined red beads. This is made of peyote stitch and net stitch. It was supposed to have a criss-cross pattern, but I had trouble following the pattern so it's broken in a lot of places. I think it looks good that way, fortunately - it gives a sort of organic randomness effect.

Beautiful! I'm working on a burgundy sweater right now and I was trying different contrasting bead against it and was struck by jow good a certain shade of green looks. I have to fing the right texture and weight of bead though as the sweater is a loose weave but a little nubbly.
