Interlace
Project Map
Project by and Sample by Kate Richbourg
This wrap has it all! Kate’s Hybrid necklace gave her some ideas about mashing up more beadshop projects and techniques into a fabulous wrap bracelet. Interlace combines the classic Bollywood style of beaded macramé while inserting center beads as seen in Born Yesterday and Poetry. With even more of a twist on these beadshop staples, Kate is using CzechMates Tiles, see her technique for stringing both through and around these two-holed beads live on the show!
As if that mash-up wasn’t enough, we have even more! The macramé section branches off from a focal Pi stone, and coming from the other side we have two different techniques, too! Using 1.5mm leather, Kate uses a Cat’s Paw knot to create a perfect point to start laddering from. Here, she uses Infinity Stitch to pattern with Quarter Tilas, 8/0 Seed Beads, and Little Shadows. Then, the laddering section blends into a section of Herringbone!
Add one more element to the mix...the famed “Trail’s End Loop,” an infinity-like loop of leather first made popular in Janice’s Trail’s End sample called Ballymaloe, this is a great technique for adding a button loop that’s easily adjustable for size.
