I called it "flying bracelet" because it remembers me of fly's wings! Lol The bracelet is quite easy to make and I love how easy it is to play with colors in this pattern.
I wanted to make all them in summer colors, but I couldn't resist making one in black/silver.
Now, the key to successfully make these bracelets is to use a tight tension when adding the rizo beads. And because of that, it's important to use a strong thread like Fireline.
Here's the list of materials that I used and the link for the stores where I bought them:
