Description: |
Weave a
necklace of dancing starfish using coiled cubic right-angle
weave! The Twisty Starfish Necklace necklace features a
collection of beaded starfish all woven from seed beads and
traditional bead types such as round glass, bicone crystal,
and fire polish beads. In this class, you will learn how to
weave the starfish using
coiled CRAW;
a variation of twisted CRAW that naturally twists and coils
based on its specific thread path. Like traditional CRAW,
coiled CRAW makes a supple rope that can be firmed up with
additional embellishment, and this technique can also be
used to make twisty components and additional structural
beaded forms.
This class is perfect for the student
who is experienced with cubic right angle weave and who
would like to learn a new variation on this versatile
stitch. Students will learn how to weave coiled CRAW, how to
use different sizes of beads to make thicker and thinner
coiled CRAW ropes, how to combine this stitch with prismatic
right-angle weave (PRAW) to create three different sizes of
starfish, and how to connect the starfish together to
complete the necklace.
