multilayered piece of kandi
On myspace i got asked how to make this piece, and took me a few minutes to notice it's not the same as a multi.
The idea is the same, but insted of having 1 row around your wrist, you have 1 row as height
So instead of measuring your wrist, you measure how high you want this piece to be

    Step 6

    My wrist is really small, so i ended after 18 beads (sideways)
