A Mini Celebration or In Vino Veritas

It happened on Monday. I had the 2,500th sale in the Sand Fibers etsy store. Wow. Wow. Wow. To celebrate, I thought we might share a bottle of wine. :)

I came up with this "in vino veritas" pattern sometime last year but never got around to beading it. I hope you enjoy it as a little "thank you" from me to you, my wonderful friends and fans without whom Sand Fibers would not be possible. Thank you!

By printing this pattern, you agree to the following conditions:

• to credit either Sand Fibers or Carol Dean Sharpe with the design (or, if you modify the pattern with the inspiration for the design) in any listing/photograph/posting;
• to sell any work made and sold from the pattern ONLY if you yourself hand-created the piece (in other words, no mass production);
• to NOT resell or distribute the pattern - if your friends are interested, just give them the link to this blog post.

The gift of this pattern to you in no way implies purchase or transfer of the copyright, which shall remain with Sand Fibers/Carol Dean Sharpe. Thank you for supporting your pattern designer's rights.

As shown and woven with size 11 delica beads, the pattern results in a beaded band that is approximately 1.4" wide and 4.25" long. To reach your desired length for a cuff, just add an equal number of rows of the background color on either end of this.  The colors you use for this are entirely up to you.

Now be well and get going!
