Construction Notes

Photos below to show the work sequence.

1) When making the wire components, spread the wire apart to achieve a neater twist. Start twist as close to the (component) head as possible.
2) Do not over-twist otherwise you will twist off the whole head.
3) Cut the ends after the twist is done to make the ends even and ready for weaving into bracelet.

Crochet base - remember you have 2 halves: front and back (for folding over). Make appropriate length taking into account the clasp you will be using. Flatten the wire base by rolling with bottle. Will give a smoother finish against the skin and a more professional and neat finish.

As you weave in components, neaten off so that there are no sharp parts sticking out.
