CONTINUATION: triangular shaped peyote
- in round three you add the second color: *pick up 2 beads (SE), go through the next bead, pick up 1 bead (SI), skip a bead, go through the next bead** and pick up 2 beads (SE), go through the next bead, pick up 1 bead (SI), skip a bead, go through the next bead, repeat one more time from *to**
- go through an extra bead to create a step-up
- have a closer look: on each corner you will have added 2 beads (SE) per stitch, while on the sides you have added only 1 bead (SI) per stitch at a time, the more over the corners are in a different color from the sides = this schema will continue throughout your piece
- round four: add 2 beads (SE) on corner A, add 1 bead (SI) to the side and once more 1 bead (SI) to the side, add 2 beads (SE) on corner B, add 1 bead (SI) to the side and once more 1 bead (SI), add 2 beads (SE) on corner C, add 1 bead (SI) to the side and once more 1 bead (SI) to the side and make a step-up by going through the next bead
- to summarize, you have made an increase on the corners, regular peyote on the sides and a step-up to access the next round
notice also that the corner beads sit awry or cattywampus and tower above the sides
- round 5: add 2 beads (SE) on each corner and add 3 times 1 bead (SI) in regular peyote on the sides
- round 6: add 2 beads (SE) on each corner and add 4 times 1 bead (SI) on the sides
- round 7: add 2 beads (SE) on each corner and add 5 times 1 bead (SI) on the sides
- round 8: add 2 beads (SE) on each corner and add 6 times 1 bead (SI) on the sides ... and so on
- In the last round you may add a single bead (SE) in each corner instead of 2 beads and add a little loop on the last corner
- to fix your thread, zigzag through your finished piece
