    2. Pick up one SB15 + one HT + one SB15 + one HT + one SB15. Go through the top hole of the Sthen go through the seven seed beads, going toward the S, to complete the loop.

    LUCY BRACELET

    SUPPLIES:

    15/0 seed beads (SB15) 11/0 seed beads (SB11) 8/0 seed beads (SB8) Silky beads (S) Half Tila beads (HT) * 4mm druks or pearls (D) Fireline or Nymo B thread, about 3 yards 2 jump rings Clasp

    NOTE: Due to the manner in which this bracelet is made, it can be tricky to know which way to addthe Half Tila beads so that their tops are always facing the same way up as the bumps on the Silkybeads. If you're not fussy about having your Half Tilas right side up (curved side facing up and flatside facing down), don't worry about it. If you are fussy about this, you should be able to figure outwhich way to add them once you're familiar with the pattern. I've noticed that some of the Half Tilacolors are pretty much the same on both sides so this won't be an issue if you're using those colors.

    1. Pick up two SB15 + one SB11 + one SB8 + oneSB11 + two SB15 + one S, going through the bottomhole of the S with the bump side up. Slide the beadsdown to the end of the thread, leaving enough of a tailto weave in later.

    NOTE: The Silky hole that you go through will alternate from the top to the bottom hole every othertime. If your thread is exiting through a top Half Tila bead, you should go through the top hole of theSilky bead with the bump facing up. If your thread is exiting a bottom Half Tila, go through the

    bottom hole of the Silky with the bump facing up.

    3. Go back around this circle of beads (S, SB15, HT, SB15, HT, SB15 and S) and tie a knot whenyou reach the tail. Go on through the first two SB15 and the next SB11. Skip the SB8 and gothrough the next SB11 and two SB15. Pop out the bead that you skipped.

    * This pattern also works with Rulla beads andCzechMates Bricks.

    4. Go back around this circle of beads two more times toreinforce the clasp loop, skipping the SB8 one more time but gothrough it the last time around. Exit through the bottom hole ofthe S.

    5. Go on through the next SB15, HT, SB15 and HT.

    6. Pick up three SB15 and go through the otherhole of the HT that you are exiting. Push the threeSB15 so that they sit as neatly across the side ofthe HT as possible.

    7. Pick up one SB15 + one D + one SB15. Go throughthe outer hole of the other HT.

    8. Pick up three SB15 and go through the other hole of the HT that youjust exited.

    10. Pick up one SB15 + one HT + threeSB15. Go through the other hole of theHT that you just picked up.

    9. Go on through the next SB15, HT, three SB15, HT, SB15 and D.

    NOTE:Be careful not to go through the SB15 that is next to the Silky bead whenever you areinstructed to go through the three SB15 on the sides of the Half Tilas.

    Go back around this circle of beads again to reinforce the stitching then exit through the D.

    11. Pick up one SB15 + one HT +three SB15. Go through the otherhole of the HT that you just added.

    12. Pick up one SB15 and go through the D.Go back around to reinforce this circle ofbeads, exiting through the inner hole of theHT as shown.

    NOTE:As with the Silky beads, the Half Tila that you exit from in this stepwill alternate every other time, from top to bottom.

    13. Pick up one SB15 + one S + one SB15 + oneHT + one SB15 + one HT + one SB15. Gothrough the other hole of the S.

    REMINDER: The hole that you go through when you add the Silky beads will alternate from the topto the bottom hole every other time. If your thread is exiting through a top Half Tila bead, you shouldgo through the top hole of the Silky bead with the bump facing up. If your thread is exiting a bottomHalf Tila, go through the bottom hole of the Silky with the bump facing up.

    14. Pick up one SB15 and go through the nearest hole of the HT.
