Bracelets

I got my friend Sharon to make my daughters and me bracelets. Pictured here on my mohair Snowdrop Shawl, pattern by the Yarn Harlot

I'm pink, Beth is green and Wendy is purple.

I asked Sharon to design them, I just requested the colors, she found the great Mogen David clasps and all the silver spacers. (next photo background is the Earth Stripe Wrap, by Kaffe Fasset).

Eventually, I asked for each bracelet to have a bead from the others. At first she wasn't too sure about that (and I wasn't, either, really), but Sharon came up with the really neat way to manage that. I wasn't sure it would work, artistically, but Sharon took it and ran with it, and we love them!
