How to make a solid (rigid) double layered Square in RAW (right angle weave) stitch? The first photo shows some samples. They are just for reference and as you can see, I have not tidied up all the threads yet.
This actually is a very delightful shape - it is crisp and solid and can be used in a ring, as a pendant, or any anyway your creativity takes you. I did make some of these some years ago but for the life of me, I could not remember how it was done. I had found some illustrated instructions in a Japanese beading book, and I followed along. At that stage, I had never even heard of the term "RAW" or "right angled weave". Without the book, there was no way I could reproduce these little delights.
However in a moment I will let you know a little secret and how I now have the (probable) ability to reproduce this at will without the initial instructions book ...
