Learn Netting Stitch with this free seed bead netting pattern and create a beautiful lacy beaded bracelet.
Beaded Netting Stitch is an open and airy weave that's absolutely beautiful. It's a great beading technique for beginners to learn.
Even the Tubular variations of bead netting tend to be simple and pretty easy for anyone to master. That's not always the case for all techniques.
In this post, I'll share a Flat Netting Stitch bracelet pattern so if you've been wondering how do you do bead netting, then this should help.
I'm calling this pattern the Brilliant Bugle Bracelet because I've designed it to complement the Brilliant Bugle Collar, a necklace pattern that I designed years ago. It's still one of my best sellers to this day.
To complete this seed bead bracelet, you'll need two colors of size 11 seed beads, as well as some bugle beads.
I have created both a video and written tutorial for this bead weaving project.
