11. Adding the Daggers
Make sure that you are exiting one of the "up" beads from the last round.
Pick up 2 A, 1 dagger, and 2 A.
Skip the next B bead and pass through the third B bead from where you are exiting. If you are exiting from an "up" bead, you will pass through one of the pair of B beads added in the next to last round.
12. Finish Adding the Daggers
Continue to add daggers in this manner until you have added a total of 6 daggers.
13. Add a Hanging Loop
Weave your working thread into the beadwork until you are exiting a bead at the top of the earring that is directly above the center of your row of daggers.
Pick up 10 size 15 beads and pass back into the beadwork.
Repeat the thread path a few times to strengthen the loop.
Weave your working thread into the beadwork, tie a few half-hitch knots and then trim the thread close to the beadwork. Do not tie the knots too tightly or the beadwork may begin to pull and pucker.
Weave in the thread tail and trim close to the beadwork.
14. Add the Earring Finding
Using the chain nose pliers, gently open the loop on your earring finding and add your completed earring. Close the loop securely.
Repeat these steps to make a second earring.
