CONTINUATION: the even-count flat peyote stitch
- continue picking up a bead in color c and go through a bead in color b until you reach the end of the row
- pull the thread constantly until the X motif is visible
- at the end of the row you go through the first seed bead you strung
- turn your work and start the fourth row by picking up a bead in color a and go through a bead in color c, repeat until the end of the row
- in other words, to start a new row you pick up a new bead and go through the last bead of the previous row
- as the work progresses, peyote becomes easier, so please persist during the first four rows
- to end a thread, zigzag several times through your piece – to start a new thread you do exactly the same
- to count the number of rows, count the end beads in a zigzag pattern
- repeat this exercise in a single color beads
Once you have mastered these exercises, you may draw geometrical patterns on graph paper and convert them into jewelry.
