Bargello-Inspired Delica Earrings by Danielle Wickes Free Project
Project Description
Stitch up some retro magic! Learn to make beaded Bargello-style fringe earrings with peyote stitch and Delica beads. The earrings start with a three-drop, odd-count peyote base with shaped edges achieved via simple decreases along the sides. Fringe is then added to continue the fun patterns! Three different bead charts are included for heaps of style.
We’ve updated this pattern to include an alternative start for the Bargello 2 colorway, and you’ll find an additional YouTube video from Danielle linked in the PDF!
