The simple but elegant Netted Bracelet is made using vertical Netting Stitch.
You will need two colours of size 11 seed beads—one to use as the main colour and the other to accentuate the edges of the bracelet.
I would recommend this bracelet tutorial for all skill levels.

I love this pattern. As a beginner, I see so many designs I would like to try, then find them to complicated to complete. This one was not only easy to learn, but mine actually looks like the example shown. Finally my work is not a failure! Thank you so much!
That’s so great! I’m really happy to hear that. You’re most welcome.
