The word plaid is Gaelic
and refers to the a garment with a tartan design. Plaid weavings, symbolized by stripes of varying widths and colors crossed at right angles, have been around for centuries. This unique technique is used in creating the Plaid Dominoes bracelet. You'll learn to layer seed beads of different colors and finishes to create a plaid pattern which is a recurring theme throughout this bracelet. This workshop will also teach you to construct this bracelet using dimensional right angle weave and embellishing it to provide structure and support. Additionally, you'll learn to connect the dominoes using a chain construction that provides a flexible turn in the bracelet to easily shape it to your wrist. The toggle closure of the bracelet provides a functional way to connect the ends and serves as well as an ornamental element in the bracelet design. This is sure to be a bracelet you'll enjoy wearing since its attractive to wear and the ergonomic design is very comfortable.

Skill Level: Prior knowledge of right angle weave and peyote is necessary for this piece. Although new techniques are covered in the pattern, they are easily learned from clear and concise instructions.
