Animals made of beads practically do not play a functional role, but they can serve as an original decoration for a keychain or phone. Such cute trinkets include a cat made of beads, made on an elastic wire that holds its shape.
Instructions
Step 1
Cast on three black beads in the middle of a piece of wire 50-60 cm long. Pass through the two outer beads with the other end so that you get a triangle of parallel beads.
Step 2
Cast on sixteen more beads on one end of the wire. For others, pass them in pairs, changing direction. The result should be a strip of several rows of tight-fitting beads. Tighten the wire just enough so that the rows do not separate, but do not overtighten so that it does not break. This is the tail of a cat.
Step 3
The number of beads in the following rows: 5-5-4-3-2-1-5. This is the back of the cat's back and the rear pair of paws. Hide the ends of the wire and cut.
Step 4
Weave the middle part from the following rows: 5-3-3. Separately weave each ear from two rows (1-2) and the part with the head, chest and front paws: the first row is six black beads, the second row is one black, one yellow, two black, one yellow, one black. The third and further rows of only black beads: 6-4-4-3-3-2-2-2-2-5. Hide and cut the ends of the wire.
Step 5
Connect the parts with thread or wire. Hide the ends inside the beads. Tie a jewelry cable to the ear.
