My Own Pattern!

I've made a bracelet before using different sizes of beads, but in a very simple spiral pattern. It looked like this:
What would happen, I wondered, if I did a zigzag pattern instead of a spiral? After working the 10 around necklace, I thought I knew how a zigzag works. I grabbed some scrap paper and drew out what I thought was required. I had to tweak it slightly after my first attempt - my zag was  longer than my zig - but it basically worked as I visualised. Here's the pattern, with A to D for four different sizes of beads:
It is very textured. Here's another angle to try to show that:

  1. Beautiful! I love the zig zag design. Believe it or not, I like the white with purple accent better. It shows off the texture. Wonderful design!

  5. Gyönyörűséges!Probálkozom a gyöngyhorgolással, egyenlőre nem sikerül...sajnos..A frivolitás jobban ment mikor tanultam, mint a gyöngyhorgolás..
