WIP: Egyptian Cuff Bracelet test strips

A newbie question...what stitch is that? is it on or off loom????

Normally, I never show a piece I'm making while in progress, but this is an
exception. While I'm waiting for my Delicas to arrive, I've been working out
my pattern in my favorite size 8/0 beads. The test strips turned out nicely
enough that I've made them into bracelets all by themselves for fun. I also
got to improvise a couple of interesting clasps.

Take a peek - they're not impressive museum material, but they are fun.

look in the Kokoshnik folder.

Oh yes, check out the photos - I've discovered the macro function on my
camera. Makes those detail shots quite a bit easier. Since this was a
rushed, spur of the moment thing, I didn't set up my usual lights and
background: it's just normal room light and a yellow bath towel.

Enjoy!

The pressed glass clasp is really pretty and unusual!
