Banana beaded necklace design

This is done using the russian spiral technique. It is a very easy procedure and works up quickly too. It can be done with different sizes of seed beads. You can use 11/0 seed beads with 8/0 or 6/0 or 10/0 seed beads with 6/0 seed beads or even 6mm crystal rondelle bead. I have used 11/0 with 8/0 seed beads for this particular necklace.

Materials

11/0  seed beads(Blue)

8/0 seed beads (yellow)

(size1 and size 3)
0.25mm beading thread
1 beading needle

11/0 is sba while 8/o is sbb

Procedure:

 1: Pick 1sbb+4sba 3times and tie. I.e 1sbb+4sba+1sbb+4sba+1sbb+4sba

2. Tie to form a circle and pass needle through the next sbb.

3. Pick 1sbb+4sba and pass needle through the next sbb.

4. Repeat step3 for the next sbb

5.  Pick 1sbb +4sba and pass through the sbb picked in step 3

                                         

6. Pick  1sbb +4sba again and pass through the next (sbb picked in step 4)

7. Continue picking 1sbb +4sba and passing needle through the next sbb till your desired length

NOTE: You will always have 2sbb near each other, always pass your needle into the one that is up.

Happy beading:)
