    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Materials: Gather all beads and the lobster clasp. Cut about 5 feet of beading thread, adding a stop bead at one end.
    Start the Weave: Begin with the smallest seed beads (15/0), creating the first unit of the right-angle weave (RAW).
    Progress the Pattern: Increase bead size progressively, adding 11/0 and then 8/0 seed beads, following the RAW technique.
    Embellish: After completing two sets of RAW with seed beads, start embellishing with amethyst beads, incorporating them into the RAW pattern.
    Add Clasp: Finish the piece by attaching a lobster clasp with a loop of seed beads for closure.
    Final Touches: Weave in and trim any excess thread to secure the ends.
