The challenge was to pick only one stitch and to make three bracelets in a different size, shape and/or color of beads.
My choice was the Right Angle Weave Stitch (RAW). This is not exactly my favorite stitch, but when I was choosing only one to use for a bracelet it inspired me the most.
I was able to finish the first bracelet (cuff) by now - the basic one. The squares are three per three beads. The beads are Miyuki Rocailles 2,2 mm in different colors, according to one of the conversion tables available online it should be 11/0 or so.
To get a better consistency and straighter lines I've added some embellishments (white beads) passing through every line again. In the middle I've added also the diagonals of three beads.
This is the result (click on the pictures to enlarge):

Two more to go now ...

Be happy,

I HEAR YOU Alenka - about life getting in the way!!! Hope you are doing okay!?
This cuff is really pretty. Love the colors.
oh Alenka ~ i love this! RAW has a wonderful look, but i do not like using it myself...it is a big challenge for me. the open lacey look and the colors you chose for this bracelet are gorgeous! i hope things are better for you and thank you for this post :-) beading can soothe when it isn't done under pressure.
