    Quick Project Steps

    In this PotomacBeads tutorial you will learn how to use a right angle weave stitch and ladder stitch to create this elegant cuff style Acadia Bracelet.
    1.Using a size 12 needle, add a stop bead onto the thread. Pick up 16 seed beads, thread back through 12 of the beads from the stop bead. Pull tight to form a block. Add another 10 seed beads, thread back through the four beads the thread is coming out of. This forms two boxes of RAW.
    2.Watch the Acadia Bracelet tutorial with Allie to see how to stitch this fabulous bracelet.
    3.Add the clasp to the wire guard. Reinforce the clasp by threading through it again to strengthen it. Add some seed beads to the bottom of the bracelet using a right angle weave to create an arched effect if desired.
    Right angle weave is one of the most versatile bead stitches, and once you have the basic technique down, the possibilities are endless. If you're looking to challenge yourself and expand your right angle weave skills, the Acadia Bracelet is the perfect project. The Acadia Bracelet is a show-stopping piece of jewelry that will impress everyone who sees it. And the best part is, you can wear it with pride knowing that you made it yourself.
