7. Pick up one infinity bead, and put the needle through one of the holes. Pick up two Delicas. And put the needle back through the opposite infinity bead hole, and the last row of Delicas, square

stitched. Reinforce it once, then move the needle to the middle of the set of Delicas in between the two infinity beads.

8. Position the needle so it is in between the two Delicas in the middle row of square stitch.

9. Pick up one O bead, and one True 2-mm crystal. Put the needle back through the O bead, and the opposite Delica (from where the thread is coming) in the square stitch.

10. Weave the needle through the next row of square stitch, one hole in the infinity bead just added, and the two Delicas just above the last infinity bead.

11. Repeat Steps 3-10 until the bracelet is three times the size of your wrist plus ¼-inch. Add thread as necessary by weaving it in, tying half-hitch knots and ending it.

12. After adding the final infinity bead on your bracelet, pick up two Delicas, and put the needle through one hole in the infinity bead. Put the needle through the previous two Delicas in the last square stitch created. Put the needle back through the opposite hole in the infinity bead, then back through the two Delicas. Leave the remaining thread in place.

Attach the Clasp Note: Before attaching the clasp, make sure the bracelet wraps around your wrist three times. 13. Thread the twelve-inch tail. Pick up two Delicas and put the

needle through the connector on one side of the clasp. Pick up two Delicas and put the needle through the two Delicas a top of the first infinity bead. Reinforce it several times, weave in the thread, tie half-hitch knots and end it.

14. Repeat on the opposite end using the remaining working thread.
