Ogalala is a mesh thatthanks to the increasing number of beads in each strip, it gradually acquires a multitude of frills, and then wraps itself in beautiful wavy interlacing. If you play with the coloring and material, you can get an incredible number of different ways to create jewelry.
The name "ogalala" itself means the largestcommunity of the American tribe of Indians Teton. They still live on the reservation in the state of Dakota, weaving from beads. This lesson will be devoted to weaving in the technique of Ogalala.
Bracelet in technique ogalala
To weave a beautiful openwork bracelet, you will need the following list of materials and tools:
- Line or monofilament;
- Czech beads under number 11 of different colors.
In braiding such a bracelet, you canUse a different combination in the color scheme, selecting suitable beads according to the shade. Contrast colors will allow you to create an original and unique product. This decoration consists of turquoise and beige beads.
The master class begins with stringing on a fishing linelight beads. To create this craft, collect about 20 cm of beads. It may be that you will have to add about ten centimeters. This depends on how tightly the bracelet bends.
Pick up the beige material and then move onon the turquoise color of beads. You need to string 5 pieces on a needle and thread it together with the beads into the most central of those that are in the second strip. Do these manipulations along the entire length of the craft.
The next step is to bring it outa needle from the third bead, which is located in the center in the third strip. Pick up seven beads on the needle and pull it through the one that is located in the center from the previous beads in row 3. Repeat these steps along the entire length of the decoration. According to the ogala technique, seven beads complete the line. In this lesson, the last strip is made of nine pieces. You need to take a needle and pull it through the glass bead, which is in the previous row. Then pick up 9 light glass beads and pull the tool through the central one, located among the seven strung in the fourth line. Then string the light ones again. With this, you will create an openwork strip weave.
The next stage of the master class involvesweaving of fringe ogala. Pass the needle through the beads located at the end of the fifth row. Take 3 more pieces and pass the needle right there into the main material. Repeat this pattern once more. Pick up 3 pieces and pull the needle out after one. In the place where the upper row and the penultimate one cross, you need to pull the needle through three beads. Fringe ogala is done over the entire surface of the bracelet.
The master class is not finished yet.It remains to make the correct stitching of the product. Take a needle and pull it through the bead, which is located on the edge in the first line. Pick up five elements on it and pull it through the sixteenth glass bead in the first strip. As a result, you will get a constriction. You can create this constriction from a different number of beads. It all depends on what the density of the wavy parts will be. To make a wave of a denser structure, you need to use fewer beads during stitching.
Next, pull the thread through the same bead, only inback through the constriction. Then pull the thread through the thirteenth bead and string 5 more as you go. Count 16 and thread the needle through. Then return it to the other side again. Repeat the above steps a few more times to complete the bracelet using the ogalala technique.
One of the most important conditions is the moment,that the product needs to be laid out on the back side, and the fringe will be on the front side. As a result, you will get a wave element that resembles a sinusoid. At the very end, you will only have to attach a special metal clasp.
Charming Necklace
If you were able to weave the bracelet from the previous onemaster class, then the next product will be much easier for you to make. For work you will need 50 g of beads of any color, beads approximately fifty pieces.
Lock one element and then typebeads on a 60 cm long thread. If you take a piece of this length, the necklace will be about forty-five centimeters. If you want it even longer, then add glass beads. The article will present a diagram on the basis of which you will do all the steps. After the first row, weave the next one.
As you may have noticed, for every two elements infirst strip, will be added by 2 in the next. In the fifth row, you need to create a fringe. To secure the result obtained, you need to move on to stitching. Sew only in the first row. Exit from one element and dial several additional pieces. Then enter the thread into the sixteenth in a row, exit it and return again to the first. Go through the entire first row with a needle and make a tightening. Then return to the original place and perform these manipulations several additional times until you sew the entire necklace.
To prevent the product from curling into a spring,constantly straighten and twist it. The wavy elements with fringe should be located all the time on one side, preferably on the front. Now the necklace in the ogala technique is completely ready. The presented ogala from beads scheme will be understandable even to beginners.
