The document provides a step-by-step guide for creating a right angle weave handbag pattern using pink seed beads and wire. It details the process of forming clusters, making turns, and constructing the handbag including attaching a pearl and creating handles. The pattern emphasizes precision and careful tracking of clusters and steps to ensure successful completion.

3. Fold the wire in half, string
four pink seed beads and
move them to the middle of
the wire. We can refer to
the wire’s left side as
orange and the right side as
purple.
Step 1
Step 2
Thread the purple wire, in the opposite
direction through the first bead stringed.
These four seed beads form a circle and
also the start of the right angle weave
handbag pattern.

TIP
Each circle is called a cluster.
In each cluster is a number. It is
much easier when we refer to
certain parts on the pattern.

4. Step 3
String one pink seed bead on the purple wire
and the following on the orange wire: one pink
seed bead, one dark pink seed bead.
Step 4 Thread
the
purple
wire
through
the dark
pink
seed
bead to
form the
next
cluster.

Follow steps 3 and 4 to make two more clusters.

5. Step 6
String three
pink seed
beads onto the
purple wire to
start making
the turn for
the next row.

12345
Step 7
Thread the orange wire
through the last pink
seed bead stringed.
Remember to pull tight
every time. We will do
steps 6 and 7 one more
time to complete the
turn.

Step 8
String three pink

orange wire.
Step 9
TIP
I will not show the whole pattern
each time so please refer to the
numbers in each cluster so that you
do not lose your place.
Now thread the purple wire
through the last pink seed bead
stringed. This completes the
turn to the next row. Follow the
pattern until you start the turn
for cluster 31.

7. 33 32 31
3026 27 28 29
Repeat
steps 6
and 7 for
the turn to
make
cluster 31.
Now make
clusters 32
and 33
until you
reach the
purple
star.
TIP
Follow the pattern closely so
that it would be easy for you to
start the next steps. Step 10
We will
now
make
cluster 35
first and
then
cluster 34
to start
the next
row.
String three pink seed beads onto the purple
wire and follow the next step closely.

8. 35 34 33 32 31
3026 27 28 29
With the
purple wire,
go back
through the
bottom pink
seed bead of
cluster 26
and back
through the
first pink
seed bead
stringed.
Step 11
String one pink seed bead onto the orange wire and thread
the purple wire through this bead to complete cluster 34.
35 34 33 32 31
Step 12
Now string three more
pink seed beads onto
the orange wire. This
will be the start of
cluster 36.

Step 14
Step 13
Thread the purple wire
through the last pink seed
bead stringed. Make two
more clusters ending with
the two wires through the
last pink seed bead
stringed.
String four pink seed
beads onto the orange
wire and follow the
pattern closely to start the
next row of clusters.

Step 16
Go back with the same
orange wire through
the first seed bead
stringed to complete
cluster 39.
Make three more rows
until you come to the
green star. Then
follow steps 10 and 11
again to complete
clusters 53 and 52.

Step 17
String three more pink
seed beads onto the
orange wire.
Thread the purple
wire through the
last pink seed bead
stringed.
Now go back with the
orange wire through the
bottom pink seed bead of
cluster 51 and, on the same
wire, string three more pink
seed beads.

Step 19
Step 20
Now string seven pink seed beads onto
the purple wire. Thread the orange wire
through all seven seed beads stringed
and then back through the bottom bead
of cluster 55 and pull tight.
To make cluster 56, go back
with the orange wire through
the bottom bead of cluster 50
and back through the first
bead stringed.
Both wires must come out in
opposite sides of this last bead
stringed of cluster 55.
If possible, repeat and then work the wires
back through the beads and end off.
String one pink seed bead onto the
orange wire and thread the purple
wire through to form cluster 55.

Step 21
Before you fold the
piece, find the pink star
in cluster 13 to attach
the pink pearl.
Thread the 10 cm piece of wire through the
button and then through the pearl and
through the button again . Do this a few times
if possible. Both ends of the wire must come
out through the button on the inside.
Add the pink pearl by
putting in place a
small button on the
inside of the piece.
This will hold the
pearl in place.
End off the wire on the inside by
twisting the two ends a few times.
Cut off the excess wire around 1
cm from the button. Push the
twisted wire flat.

14. Step 22
Thread the blue, 30 cm
wire through the top
beads of clusters 11, 16
and 21.
When you fold the
piece on the fold-lines,
those three beads will
form ¾ of a cluster.
Fold the weaved piece on the fold lines and follow the next
few steps to do the sides of the handbag and also the handles.

Step 23
C. Pull tight and thread the one end of the blue wire through the right seed
bead of cluster 10 and the other end through the left bead of cluster 30.
Repeat A and B until you have made three clusters.
A. String one pink seed bead onto
the one end of the blue wire.
B. Now thread the other end of
the blue wire in the opposite
direction through the seed bead.
We will now make the
handles. String one pink
seed bead onto the one end
of the wire.
Thread the other end of the
blue wire through the seed
bead and pull tight. Make
16 more of these.

16. Step 24
Thread the right
end of the wire
through the right
seed bead of
cluster 35.
After weaving 18 of
these single bead rows,
thread the left end of
the wire through the
left seed bead of
cluster 5.

TIP
Be sure the
beads lay snug
against each
other.

Repeat until you have made three clusters. Work the wires away back through
the seed beads and end off
