3 Segment Dragonscale Bracelet

Summary:

Skill Level: Intermediate

Supplies Required: 34 Green, 17 Black, 1 Clip

Description: This off-the-loom pattern can be made as long as your need. It is also call the dragonskin, or fishskin bracelet. Although this particular example of the dragonscale has 3 segments, it can be made as wide as the loom is long. This pattern is also particularly popular, because you do not need a loom to create it. It can be created easily using a fork as the loom. Different variations of the patterns can be made by place a twist or figure-8 in the elastics as they are being added to the pattern.
