Free Kumihimo Seed Bead Patterns (3/19/2014)
Apparently I’m coming to the Kumihimo craze a little late. I’m taking my first class soon. Well, I did take one class years ago on the using the Marudai, but it was a frustrating experience and I had a headache. Finally I am brave enough to try again, only with the foam disc. If you haven’t tried it yet, do what I’m doing and take a class at your local bead store.

Today I’m going to give you a quick little explanation of how to make these cute kumihimo bracelets using embroidery thread and seed beads. I love that the spacing of the beads allows you to see the color of the thread. Before we begin, make sure you go read my Kumihimo Braided Bracelet Tutorial and my Kumihimo Beaded Bracelet Tutorial. This will make a lot more sense if you have the basics down.

Here are some of the creations we came up with. All the techniques that follow are based around the Simple 8 Warp Braid technique; the instructions for this are included with all of the round Kumihimo Braiding boards that we stock.

To begin, you may want to review how to make a Braided Kumihimo Bracelet. This tutorial does not cover each specific step like the Braided Kumihimo Bracelet does. I will just show you how to add the beads into the bracelet. When you start your bracelet, you will want to begin by making a Kumihimo braid. You will make the braid just long enough {about 1/4″} for your end cap to be glued on to. Then it’s time to start adding beads.

Using the Miyuki Long Magatama seed beads, you can create this beautiful Kumihimo snake like bracelet. It is made exactly the same as the beaded Kumihimo with Swarovski or the round Miyuki seed beads. Because these beads are petal shaped and either side is different, to get the snake effect you need to thread the beads on all the same way.

“How many beads do I need?” I get emailed this question all the time. And there is no real simple answer. I usually suggest braiding a beaded gauge. The size of the bead, the thickness or thinness of the cord and the braid pattern will all influence the beaded braid. I braid with 8/0 and 6/0 Toho and Miyuki seed beads. Not all 6/0 seed beads are the same and not all 8/0 seed beads are the same. Braiding up a gauge is your best bet to determine your bead usage.
