Thanks to Clint Steadman for this pattern. 🙂
What You’ll Need
- A long piece of tiger tail
- A mother of pearl bead (bead with small loop through which to thread your tiger tail)
- Beads (you can work out your own pattern and colour scheme, depending on how long you want your chain)
- Two crimpers
- Crimping tool or long nose pliers
Instructions
- Take a long piece of Tiger Tail, put it through a Mother of Pearl
pead. (It can be any form. The one I used looked like a tear. At the tip there was a circle where you put the tiger tail through). - Put the two
ends of the Tiger Tail together. Then you can start a sequence. (Note: You are threading the beads through both ends of your tiger tail.) - When your plug chain is long enough, you thread two Crimpers onto your tiger tail.
- Then thread your tiger tail through the plug and back through the crimpers.
- Pull tight and use your crimping pliers to close the crimpers.
- Take the Tiger Tail back through two or three beads, and cut off the bits that are sticking out.
