CRESCENT WEAVE BAND

©2019 Deborah Roberti

Use size 15/0 and 11/0 rocaille seed beads, Miyuki Tila beads and Crescent beads to create a band that looks intricate but is actually quite easy after the initial setup and you get the hang of the repeat sequence. Directions and illustrations are also included for using 5x5mm Czech Tile Mini two-hole beads and for a much wider band using size 11/0 and 8/0 rocaille seed beads and Czech 6x6mm Tile two-hole beads. In addition, there’s no reason why you can’t use Half Tila, Quarter Tila or a combination of stacked Tila bead sizes instead of the full-sized Tila beads, or Czechmate two-hole Brick beads instead of Czech Tile beads.

Stitch: Various

Beads Used: For the Tila bead version: Size 15/0 and 11/0 rocaille seed beads, Miyuki 5x5mm two-hole Tila beads and Czechmates Crescent beads. For the 5x5mm Mini Tile two-hole bead version: Size 15/0 and 11/0 rocaille seed beads, Czech 5x5mm Mini Tile two-hole beads and Czechmates Crescent beads. For the 6x6mm Tile bead version: Size 11/0 and 8/0 rocaille seed beads, Czech 6x6mm two-hole Tile or Czechmates two-hole Tile beads and Czechmates Crescent beads.

NOTE: Bead colors and coatings (and even bead types!) seem to be disappearing at a rate that I can no longer keep up with. I try to find substitutes when I can but "discontinued" seems to be the norm these days.
