Using size 8 thread and a size 10 needle, pick up four 8/0s and sew back through three of the beads. Pick up three more 8/0s and sew into the last bead on the thread. Sew back up the right hand side of the box you just created and add three more 8/0s. Continue with the right angle weave the whole length of your wrist. 2. Follow along with Allie in the Arizona bracelet tutorial as she shows you how to use a Hubble stitch to create the sides of the bracelet and add the clasps and embellishment. 3.

Bring the thread with the further down into the project and then knot and burn down the ends. The Arizona Bracelet is a great way to add a personal touch to your jewelry collection.
