At last, the finished bracelet

This week the clasps arrived so that the bracelet for my teenage daughter could be completed. In the end I used the kumihimo braid. An 8 warp braid using three strands of horse hair in each. Threaded onto the warps were black magnetic beads and colourful blue beads.

Inter-twined with the kumihimo braid was some cord and bead. This was then fastened with Silversilk brass ends and finally a brass toggle clasp completed the design.

Here is the finished bracelet.
It was an experiment,to use Silversilk ends because they are intended for use with Silversilk knitted wire.
