a knitted and embroided with washers bracelet
I had made the fake studs bracelet, and thought of some thing what had a other cool view.
I'm using on the moment in my art work a lot of washers, they are looking so tight and cool, so i thought why not using them on a knitting bracelet.
I was glad with how it looks on the end and it a quick to make left over project to use as a xmas present or as present on other occassions;-)
i hope you like this one too, but for all, much crafting fun with this project.;-D
