May monthly meeting in person workshop
- Unravel the mysterious technique of Prismatic Right-Angle Weave (PRAW) and explore the design possibilities this stitch offers. Students will work mainly on PRAW5 but see how this relates to PRAW3 and PRAW6. You will have the opportunity to learn how to embellish and graduate your bead sizes too, making a necklace or earring component with each sample. Embellished samples can make great beaded beads.
A bonus earring pattern will be supplied to students to make a pair with simple embellishment of your own choice later. - Skill Level: Beginner to advanced
- Technique/stitches involved: Prismatic right-angle weave and embellishment.
