Macrame Diamonds

Scarab in micro macrame bracelet by Sherri Stokey of Knot Just Macrame.

With our holiday celebrations in the rear view mirror now, I've had a bit of time to sit down and play with my beads.  I don't feel like I've finished experimenting with my newest design - I call it Woven Diamonds (you can find the online class here, if you are interested).

I had some little scarab beads and it turns out they nestle just as snug as a bug in a rug... (okay, I'm a little sorry for that one).  The scarab does fit rather well in the center of this bracelet, though.  I kept the background neutral and then used a great mix of beads with some greener turquoise, off white and bronze.

While I was digging through my stash for oval shaped beads, I ran across a sodalite one I couldn't pass up.  I paired it with navy blue cord and made a seed bead mix to match.

I'm pretty happy with the way both of these turned out.  They're listed in my Etsy shop, if you just can't resist.  I also have a couple kits listed if you don't want to have to find the materials yourself.  One is in the sodalite and blues and the other is turquoise like this:

Happy knotting!!

  3. For other individuals who like wearing precious stone rings these rings are the ideal supplements to any outfit. The decision of precious stone that you pick will at times limit what kinds of garments that you wear. For example you can wear a yellow precious stone with hues that won't make the jewel ring look pompous. Platinum rings
