In this video, I’m sharing a pair of earrings made using a pattern from Mastering Beadwork by the late, great Carol Cypher. They’re stitched with 11/0 Miyuki seed beads and built entirely with right angle weave, making them a fantastic project for anyone looking to truly understand and master this classic beadwork technique. The earring pattern can be found in Carols book Mastering Beadwork on page 126. The book is no longer in print but you can purchase a digital copy of the book from Amazon here: https://a.co/d/4qwnMOQ
Right angle weave is one of those stitches that opens so many creative doors, and projects like this really help it “click.” You’ll see how consistent tension, repetition, and bead placement come together to create a fluid, fringe-style design that moves beautifully when worn.
💛 Why I love this project:
A perfect skill-builder for right angle weave
Uses simple materials with stunning results
Elegant, lightweight, and full of movement
A wonderful way to honor Carol Cypher’s lasting influence on beadwork
Whether you’re revisiting right angle weave or learning it more deeply for the first time, this project is a rewarding (and sparkly!) way to practice. Grab your beads, get comfy, and let’s stitch together something beautiful 🧵💫
Thanks for beading along with me!
