Spiral Mania

My friend gave me the directions for this new (to me, anyway) stitch.  It was so much fun I went a little crazy.  And a 3rd one is in the making.  :D  Anyway, here are my latest bracelets.  I'm having FAR too much fun.  :D

Thanks, Flo! It's the old stand by spiral stitch but instead of pushing all the small beads to one side (I push to the left) you push one set to the left then the next set to the right. The original stitch is one core bead then 4 small beads. PT the core then pick up a core and 4 more small beads. All the while you are pushing the small beads to one side. In this one, it's just one left then one right then one left until you get the length you want. This one is 2 core beads then the small beads you see. :)

Thanks for the info Moe. I had read that doing spiral weave that way didn't work, but this looks fantastic.
