If you are unfamiliar with flat even count peyote, please watch our video
here. As you work you will be
tying off your threads after the seamless joins. You will make one bracelet alternating black and orange, and a second one alternating green and purple.
- Begin by making a strip of even count peyote of green beads using crystal fireline: 12 columns and 22 rows.
- Once you have this strip you will make a seamless join around two square frames. Make sure that the grooves on the squares are facing the same direction. (See photo for reference)
- Next, you will make a strip the same size with the purple beads. Then attach it to one of the squares opposite the ones with the green beads as well as a another square frame with the same seamless join.
- Move on, and repeat the above two steps twice more.
- To make the loop for the clasp, create a strip of peyote with green beads that is 10 columns, and 30 rows. Attach it with a seamless join. No need to add another square frame here, because this will become the loop for the clasp.
- Now move to the other side. Create a strip of peyote 10 columns and 28 rows using purple beads. You will create a seamless join attaching the last square on the length of the bracelet to the closed loop of the E hook clasp.
- To make the second bracelet, repeat the above process but this time alternate the black and orange. (See photo for reference). Note: When weaving with the black beads, use the smoke fireline instead of the crystal.
