    Quick Project Steps

    Learn how to use a right angle weave to create the Flying V RounDuo Bracelet in this PotomacBeads tutorial.
    1. Put a size 10 needle onto about 6 feet of beading thread. Add a stop bead, leaving 10-12 inches for a tail. Pick up 4 RounDuo beads with an O bead in between each and one at the end. Bring the needle back up through the first 5 beads. This creates your first RAW unit.
    2. Watch the Flying V RounDuo Bracelet tutorial to follow along with Allie’s step-by-step directions to create the pattern used in this beautiful beaded bracelet.
    3. Create a loop out of seed beads at the end of your project that is big enough to fit the cup button. Reinforce the loop and bring the thread out to the side of the bracelet. Tie the two thread ends together and hide the thread in the project. Burn the loose edges.
    The Flying V RounDuo bracelet has a cute picot trim and is a great design with a nice weight. Create your V pattern with your favorite colors of RounDuo beads for a piece of jewelry you’ll love to wear and show off.
