This versatile bracelet is crocheted with red wire and incorporates hundreds of tiny seed beads in a rainbow of colors. Though the beads are very small, stringing them on is actually quite easy since the wire is stiff. The bracelet can be worn flat or folded, creating wide-and-thin or narrow-and-thick options. The bracelet is reversible, too-the bold red wire is dominant on one side and the colored beads are dominant on the other. Although the instructions for this bracelet are simple, working with wire can be challenging because it tangles easily. I find it helpful to keep the wire in a small drawstring bag while I work.

Materials: Red color-coated copper wire, 28 gauge (.3mm), about 33yd (30cm)
