By omitting the beads and the bracelet fastening, as well as by adding a tassel to the end of this bracelet pattern, it is also possible to make it into a bookmark. This lovely bracelet was created by Jennifer Williams of Cariad Tatting.
A single strip is worked in the first row and it is not joined until the second row is worked.
The first row consists of ordinary rings and lock chains.
A short chain is used for the lock chain at the ‘ends’ of the bracelet, while the longer chain is used for the rest of the bracelet.
When working with the lock chains, you need to take care to ensure that that all of them (except those at the ends) are of the same size.
