Free Silky Stacker pattern

Free step-by-step illustrated instructions for a stacking bracelet that uses the new Czech two-hole Silky beads! Silky beads are 6x6mm in size, similar to the CzechMates Tile beads, but the two parallel holes are on the diagonal, with a raised bevel on the top of each bead that runs opposite of the diagonal thread path.
