Beading of harnesses - patterns for DIY work, concepts and materials
Using special patterns for weaving bundles,you will be able to master the most necessary and convenient lessons that will perfectly suit your work and will become a clear example of how to act to obtain a guaranteed result. Below will be presented interesting works, as well as the positions necessary for forming a tourniquet.
The cords can be either dense or openwork. They can have a square or round cross-section. Also, when weaving cords from beads, you can add other types of beads to the product.
Option of the American plait
One of the very popular and widespreadAmong the masters of types of weaving, is the "American tourniquet". It is performed in the form of spiral weaving. Despite the fact that it is very simple to weave, the end result, even using the same beading pattern, will always look new if the manufacturing options include beads of different shapes or sizes, as well as shades of beads. This interesting type of tourniquet is often called "Rope". It is advisable to remember both names, since both options can be found in descriptions. The basic principle of weaving the "American" tourniquet is that after securing the central bead or "stop bead", you need to collect 4 more main beads for the middle of the tourniquet being performed and 3 beads in order to braid the middle. The fishing line threaded into the needle must be pulled through the middle, i.e. starting with the first and ending with the fourth bead of the base, so that a loop of beads is formed. For such a base or middle, it is worth choosing beads with large holes, since the needle will have to freely pass through the beads from 4 to 5 times.

Then we string one bead of the base again andthree for braiding. Pull the fishing line with the needle to the top, starting with the second bead of the base of the tourniquet. Repeat the next step, starting with the third bead, and continue weaving until you get a tourniquet of the length we need. When the tourniquet is completely ready, remove the “stop bead”, attaching a clasp instead, if necessary. How to form an American tourniquet Such a tourniquet, which belongs to the type of technique with multi-layer overlay, will turn out to be quite plastic and flexible. When weaving a product from beads using the “American” tourniquet technique, you can safely use beads of any type and size for braiding the base, as well as beads, crystals or decorative stones. When forming an “American” tourniquet, each of its rows will consist of sequentially dialed loops with a certain number of beads. It is important to take into account that the more beads the loop includes, the more elastic the cord itself will be, and the beaded product in the form of jewelry will be more delicate.Now let's look at the weaving pattern and features"openwork" cord, which also has the name "Russian spiral". In the execution of such a cord, you can use both the beads themselves and various beads, glass beads, rhinestones or stones. Such cords (cords) can be used as an additional decorative element in the manufacture of any product or such a cord can itself serve as an independent decoration. When weaving such a cord, a certain number of beads is collected, which you need, which are closed in a ring. To do this, you need to pass the working thread through the first strung bead again.
The harness of the Russian spiral
This cord is woven using improvised means.tool. Such a tool can be a pencil or a plastic tube, which are respectively inserted into the bundle when you just start weaving. This is necessary so that the bundle has the same tension and will make the beading process easier for you. The rod you choose for making the bundle should have a diameter that will allow the bundle to be not too compact, but at the same time not too loose, and the beads could fit tightly enough to each other. In no case should you allow the working thread to be visible between the beads when weaving such a cord. The bundle should be elastic, able to hold its shape well. To make an “openwork” bundle, collect such a number of beads that can be a multiple of three and minus one bead. For example, 11 or 17. It should be taken into account that the more beads you collect, the thicker the bundle itself will be. Weaving is done strictly following one direction. The two types of harnesses that we have considered in this article are made using spiral weaving, which is also called "tubular". By applying your skills in practice, you will be able to see that the techniques for making such harnesses are quite easy, and the products that are born with their help look simply magnificent!
