My Trenza De Doce Bracelet.

On this bracelet I thought I would try a new clasp out for wear and tear and durability. Perfect bracelet for me. LOL...

G'day Brian,

You've done some really tidy braiding there. Even if it was just a little crooked it would spoil an item like that but you've got it spot on. I also like how the edges of your strands are laying nice and flat. So much tidier than if strands aren't bevelled. I really like your attention to detail.

Nice work, Brian.

So I've been doing a little braiding - just learning! Out of curiosity, is that braided around something to get that shape? Ive never seen a braided bracelet like that - very cool and well done!

[KnotHead]

Thanks for the very kind comment. No. It's not braided around anything to get that shape. I used just 12 strings to braid this braid and then used my roller to flatten the braid out taking care to do the rolling out on all sides. There's no big secret to the braiding part either. It's just a standard under 2, over 2, under 2 sequence.

Well that damn magnetic clasp turned my wrist green. So they're crappy. Don't buy them.

Your work looks great as usual Brian. Thanks for the info on the clasps. I am thinking I should start making some things like this. Less time than reins and belts.

Thanks for sharing with us.

Thanks Joe. I await your showing of your work.
