1. Cut a four foot length of C-Lon size D nylon beading thread. String six Miyuki size 8/0 Delica beads (DBL) and leave a six inch tail.
2. Pass back through the second to last DBL on the needle end.
3. Pull thread to secure so that the beads lay side by side. This begins ladder stitch.
4. Pass back through next DBL to continue ladder stitch.
5. Pull thread to secure.
6. Continue until all six DBL beads are ladder stitched together.
7. Pass down through the DBL to the right and back up through the DBL to the left to reinforce. This completes row 1.
8. String two DBL beads. Moving from left to right, pass under the thread bridge connecting the second and third DBL beads in row 1. This begins brick stitch.
9. Pass up through the second DBL in row 2.
10. Turn to the left and pass down through the first DBL in row 2. Pass under the thread bridge connecting the first and second beads in row 1.
11. Pass up through the first DBL in row 2.
12. Pass down through the second DBL in row 2 and continue down through the second bead in row 1. Turn and pass up through the third bead in row 1 and continue up through the second bead in row 2.
13. String one DBL. Pass under the thread bridge connecting the third and fourth DBL beads in row 1. Pass up through the third DBL in row 2.
14. Continue in brick stitch until there are five DBL beads in row 2.
15. String two DBL beads. Moving from right to left, pass under the thread bridge connecting the second and third DBL beads in row 2. Turn and pass up through the second DBL in row 3.
16. Turn right and pass down through the first DBL in row 3. Pass under the thread bridge connecting the first and second beads in row 2 and continue up through the first DBL in row 3.

19. String one Miyuki 11/0 seed bead, one DBL, one 11/0, one DBL, and one 11/0.
20. Pass through the button shank and repeat step 19.
21. Pass down through the DBL on the right side of row 3. Follow the thread path to move the thread to the left, exit the top of the DBL at the end of the row.
22. Pass through the loop of DBL and 11/0 beads holding the button and repeat step 21.
23. Pass through the loop of beads again to reinforce. Pass down through the DBL on the right side of row 3 and continue through the second DBL in row 2.
24. Anchor the thread in a figure 8 pattern by passing through the DBL beads to the right and left of the second DBL in row 2. This completes the first brick stitched section of the bracelet.
25. Pull out four feet of thread and leave the spool attached.
26. Repeat steps 1-18 to make a second brick stitched section.
27. String twenty six 11/0 beads.

30. Pull out ten feet of thread from the attached spool.
31. String one 11/0 and one Miyuki 6mm Bugle bead (BGL2) in a repeating pattern until there are nineteen 11/0 beads. This will make a finished bracelet approximately seven inches long.
32. Pass through the DBL at the end of row 1 in the first brick stitched section. Turn and pass through the second DBL in the same row.
33. Repeat step 31 and pass through the corresponding DBL in the opposite brick stitched section. Continue in this way until there are six 11/0 and BGL2 strands bewteen the brick stitched sections.
34. Continue through the DBL beads along the bottom edge of the brick stitched section and across the beads in row 3. Pass through the DBL beads along the top edge and exit the DBL as in step 31.
35. Repeat steps 31-33 to add a second layer of 11/0 and BGL2 strands between the two brick stitched sections.
