Start the Base with RAW: Add a stop bead and leave a 6–8" tail. Pick up 4 seed beads to form your first RAW unit (square). Stitch through the first bead to form a loop. Continue in right-angle weave (RAW): Add 3 beads for each new unit. Pass through the correct bead from the previous unit to form a square. Alternate bead colors for red and blue rows as you build. Build Multiple Rows: At the end of each row: Turn by stitching up the side and across the top. Begin the next row in RAW, connecting to the previous row. Build 3 rows total to create a bracelet with structure and width. Add Crystal Embellishment: Exit the center bead of a RAW square. Add: 1 × 15/0 → 1 × 3mm bicone → 1 × 15/0. Stitch diagonally across to form an "X" over the RAW unit. Repeat for selected RAW squares to add sparkle. Fill in Edge Gaps: Along the top and bottom edges: Add extra seed beads between RAW columns to smooth the edge. This also reinforces the structure and improves the look. Attach the Clasp: Exit an end bead at the top of a RAW unit. Add: 2 × seed beads → wire guard or loop → clasp → back through beads. Reinforce the clasp area by stitching through again. Repeat on the other side. Reinforce & Finish: Stitch back through multiple units for added strength. Tie off using half-hitch knots between beads. Trim or burn thread ends with a thread burner.
