| Step 2 |
Step 2- Weave a bead and 2 of the 4mm rings onto an 11mm ring and close.
Step 3- Weave a bead onto an 11mm ring. Working from the front, weave that ring through the left 4mm ring bottom to top and through the right 4 mm ring bottom to top. Before closing, add 2 4mm rings.
Step 4- Repeat Step 3 3 more times. On the last ring, instead of adding 2 4mm rings, add ear wire.

Another very adaptable design. It would look cute in a variety of bead colors or combinations; as well as ring sizes (as long as the beads can slide on the wire) and colors. This weave has just enough bend to it that it would make a great choker style necklace. I just might have to try that...
