This pattern shines like a mermaid's tale. It is easy to do if you have a basic knowledge of bead weaving, sewing or jewelry making. It combines the brilliant Cymbal bead endings so there is no need to stitch a loop to attach to your clasp. The rows alternate 3 Ginko across and 2 Ginko across. Use one color throughout or mix in a second color. It looks amazing with Backlit as your accent color. The luster finish is also wonderful.

TIPS:
1. After each row lay your work on your mat and ensure all the beads are lined up and tension is even. If you wait until a few rows are completed it is hard to adjust.
2. Kastro II and Karavos II come in a pack of 2. So get enough Ginko beads to make 2 bracelets!
