Begin with the loop as shown in step 1 of 11 3 5 7 the even-count peyote. (For simplicity, the 123456 1 24 6 loop around the first bead is not shown in this diagram.) 10 9 8 Place an odd number of beads onto the thread 11 to begin your first two rows. Thread all but the last bead of row 3 into place. Pass thread through beads 1 and 2. Put bead 11 on the 2 4 6 row 1 thread. 1 3 5 2 4 6 row 21 1 9 3 8 5 7 row 3 row 2 1 3 5 7 2. After you’ve passed back through beads 1 9 8 7 24 6 row 3 1 3 5 7 and 2 and picked up bead 11, you are going 10 11 2410 9 6 8 to make a figure-eight path with the thread 2 4 6 row 1 to begin the fourth row. Pass thread through 1 10 3 5 11 10 9 8 row 2 beads 2, 3, 10, 2, and 1, and then back 9 8 7 row 3 1 3 12 5 7 through 11. 24 6 If your needle’s final exit bead is 11, and the 12 beads on the left end are fit snugly together, 10 11 10 9 8 you’ll know your figure-eight path was suc- cessful. You won’t have to do this fancy move again until you start a new project using the odd- 12 2 4 6 count peyote. 1 3 5 2 4 6 1 9 3 8 5 7 10 11 12 9 8 7 10 11 12 3. From here on out, each row that begins on 2 4 13 6 1 3 5 7 the left has a more complex turn than the row 1 3 5 24 6 13 1 3 5 7 beginning on the right. After picking up bead 9 8 7 11 2410 9 6 8 18, pass the thread through beads 11, 12, 2, 10 11 12 12 13 14 and 11, and back through 18 to begin the next 11 10 9 8 row. 18 12 17 13 16 14 15 13 1 3 5 7 18 17 16 15 2 4 6 24 6 1 3 5 19 2 4 6 11 10 9 8 9 8 7 1 3 5 12 19 13 14 10 11 12 9 8 7 18 17 16 15 10 15 11 14 12 13 16 17 18 www.MargieDeeb.com 152 144 613 21 20 19 161 173 185 19 219 208 197 10 11 12 15 14 13 16 17 18 21 20 19 INCREASING PEYOTE STITCH BY AN ODD NUMBER OF BEADS 1. To increase by an odd number larger than one bead, pick up the number of extra beads plus one.
