    Gather Materials: 6mm pearls. 4mm bicones or crystals. 11/0 and 15/0 Miyuki seed beads in two colors. Dragon Thread (size 8). Two-strand clasp. Size 10 needle. Set Up the Thread: Attach a stop bead to your Dragon Thread, leaving a 10-inch tail for later. Start Right-Angle Weave (RAW): String 15/0 and 11/0 seed beads, followed by a 4mm bicone, and repeat the seed bead pattern. Loop the thread to create the first right-angle weave unit. Add Pearls and Fringe: Add a 6mm pearl in the next unit. Create fringe using alternating 15/0 and 11/0 beads to decorate each side of the pearl. Secure the fringe by threading back through the beads and pearl. Continue the Pattern: Alternate between pearls and bicones, repeating the right-angle weave technique. Ensure consistent tension for a symmetrical design. Attach the Clasp: Create loops of seed beads on both ends of the bracelet to attach the two-strand clasp. Reinforce the connection by threading through the clasp and seed beads multiple times. Finalize and Adjust: Tighten the threads and ensure all beads are aligned. Securely tie off the thread and trim the excess. Customize Your Design: Experiment with bead colors, sizes, or different clasp styles for a personalized look.
