How to do fast Peyote Bead Weaving

[@mbodini]

This video changed the game when it comes to my beading hobby. After doing countless patterns… am I wrong to think this is not only faster, but a superior way of beading in every way? In my experience, this makes it easier to keep the same thread tension throughout the entire work… and the finished works ends up stronger and sturdier than in the tradicional method. It works perfect with thin threads such as Miyuki… perhaps not as great if you’re working with thicker elastic threads. The only other possible downside I can think of is that it’s generally harder to correct mistakes… (specially if accidentally pass the needle through the thread) It’s a 10/10 for me. Thanks for sharing the tip

[@beadaholique]

Thanks for such great feedback! Have a wonderful holiday!

[@elliestewart1056]

WOW I have been sitting on a 15 year peyote beaded headdress because it was so time consuming lol this is encouraging me to finish it, thank you 💜

[@tamieh4599]

No kidding ! I am making a smudge can for my SIL and was dreading going the length of the f an !! There is an end in site now !!

[@IriezonaSunshine]

whaaaaaa... Lord have Mercy! Where have you been all my life? Thank you for this!

[@squirtlemcgee5131]

This tip is absolutely brilliant. I thought it would be hard if I was following a pattern, but it's not. It's made things so much easier. Thank you

[@protectivemama9130]

I lay out my peyote patterns on a bead board to work them, and I think this method will really speed up progress on my projects, as long as I remember which direction to pick up them 2 rows each time. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@beadaholique]

Thanks for watching!

[@jessicapliego767]

I just tried this with a pattern. It wasn't as tricky as I was expecting! I just added the next 2 rows and they added themselves seamlessly. Thank you for the amazing tip! 👌

[@atkinsmelyndaatkins4111]

How did you had the rows? Let's say you are doing rows 5 and 6 of a pattern. Do you start with the first bead of row 5 and then the first from row 6 or do you pick up all of row 5 and then all of row 6?

[@kc_dragonfly]

Reviewed this as a quick refresher since it's been forever since I've need to do a fast peyote stitch. Trickiest on multi-colors sections, I find it helps me go to the quickest on borders of a single color and large sections on bracelets where it's all one color.

[@anjumsiddiqi3033]

Thank you so much! That is amazing! I love it. I make bracelets from tiny seed beads and it's so time cosuming. Now with this magical trich I can make more in less time. God bless you for this awesome tip.

[@beadaholique]

I am glad you like it! Happy Beading!

[@maggielamar1830]

Amazing!!! I do lots of beading but Peyote this makes it so easy. Thank you. Sending blessings and peace

[@pammeyers8117]

Thank you for showing a way to take away the boring part of the pattern by cutting those solid rows in half. Thank you again.

FELICITACIONES a todas las personas que nos enseñan estas hermosas manualidades y a todas las que publican sus creaciones.

[@tamieh4599]

Thank you so much for this video!! I was getting Impatient doing my first tubular peyote but this makes it so much easier!

[@beadaholique]

Glad we could help Tamie :)

[@mariantoniadelemoslagnier8740]

Thank you for sharing ! Oh merci pour partager avec nous ce super idée !

[@missrzhrtjennieruthdelurey2908]

I have never been able to do peyote this looks great!

[@bonniejohara]

Why not put the needle in the end and push the beads into place as you push the needle in for "zipping up the rows"?

[@lizzyhill6233]

Thank you very much for this tip. Makes my beading significantly faster. A complete boon when doing a long length of peyote stitch

[@beadaholique]

We are very happy to hear this video helped! Thanks for watching!!

[@BeadingBrigade]

Awesome quick tip for this stitch. Thanks! I'm sharing it in my group's playlist, too.

[@skort94]

OMGosh... I have absolutely HATED doing peyote beading because it's so time consuming, but THIS! 😧❤❤❤

[@blackwidow3626]

How is this time consuming? The first few rows make it tough - but I honestly find that I end up way ahead of myself because of how fluid it becomes to just do one row at a time, even.... 🤔🤔

[@elizabethvallely4044]

That is awesome looks like you could do a simple bracelet in no time at all 😀 thank you for sharing! Hugs Liz...

[@butterflymagicwithhottea9291]

Awesome. Doing patterns (different colours) with this technique could be tricky but this is worth knowing.

[@MegaAnezia]

very, very interesting trick, with this method saved a lot of time! thanks for sharing!

[@harlanracine7025]

I have only used that method to close off the ends.

[@abrilestival4083]

Fantástico, yo no sabía como hacerlo, pero tu explicación es fabulosa, muchas gracias guapa.

[@fataturchina5289]

Hallo Kat, thanks for the best tip !! 😊😊👍👍👏👏👏🌈🌈🌈 Is it possible to make it with an uneven peyote too? Thanks a lot !!!!

[@smudgepuss]

I suspect that I'm not the only person wondering if this can be used on odd-count peyote... I haven't tried it, but I think the answer is yes as long as you start when the sticking-out beads are the ones that include the edge beads.

[@queenielisalisalisa6139]

Fantastic tip!👍🏽

[@rosemariehitsman1183]

that is the most interesting beading I have seen. I don't know if I can do that,but I am going to try

[@lindamorin7232]

Cool! I haven't try that yet, but planning on do that. Thanks for sharing :)

[@elizabethgaspodnetich4322]

Well, that looks like a lot more work than just doing it one bead at a time, unless you are using only green. I seldom use the peyote stitch anymore, unless I am doing something round, and I want to. I can do the peyote by simply using the brick stitch. If you are following a pattern, which I almost always do, just turn it sideways and let'er rip! I have been beading many many years, and have taught many people how to bead, and I have never seen this method, so kudos for teaching an old dog a new trick! I most likely won't use it, but it is still good to open ones horizons and learn new things.

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

CLEVER! I like this technique. I'm assuming you start your first 2 rows the traditional way before going to this speed stitching method, right? IE Pick up 11 beads and then stitch in another 11, right? If so, now I know how to figure out how many beads to load to create the finished width I want in inches. Eg. first load 11 beads (assuming that's 1") when I want a 2" wide cuff. Stitching in the next set of 11 beads will give me my 2" wide cuff. Hope that makes sense. It does to me. TFS this cool time saver.

[@nyperi13]

FANTASTIC!!! Thank you!

Some can be harder than others, don't let yourself get too frustrated. If you're new to peyote weaving and patterns we have a video on the basics of reading patterns: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIO0ZoOFn6eYfNU

For single color peyote, it's so fast. But I cannot apply it in pattern ones.

[@EsteeDarla]

love it,but how do you start the peyote the same as traditional?

[@tammiecarbohn6796]

Good idea. Thx

[@LindaTCornwall]

This takes no less time than doing regular, I once timed myself doing both it was literally only three or so seconds less...

[@skyleawood2649]

Linda T Agreed. Really no faster than normal peyote for longer rows as you must count precisely.

[@MissTeaq]

Plus how much more time would it take to figure how to bead a pattern with this method.

[@lpodverde]

it's faster because you're doing two rows at once

[@franceswatts4001]

@@lpodverde aaahhhh! Of course! Hmm, but how would one pick up the beads if it was a patterned piece? Alternate each bead from the next 2 rows? Oh, my brain is hurting already.

[@lpodverde]

@@franceswatts4001 yeah, you'd have to alternate two rows. You could go through your pattern (on paper or in a drawing app) beforehand and make a mark every two rows to make it easier to tell.

[@michelecherek5392]

Ok, so how would this work when STARTING a piece? All rows, doubled? Thanks

[@beadaholique]

You would still need to start your piece using a traditional method but once you are in a few rows you can use this method.

[@mianovikova7545]

[@beadaholique]

Happy beading!

[@silverguardiancreations2014]

So if I understand you pick up 2 rolls of beads? But how do you start out when you turn wished you had done several rolls

[@beadaholique]

You would pick up one row at a time. The next row would be done the same way the video starts, with the thread coming out at the top and then picking up a row of beads and then weaving the row in. The repeating. Hope that helps. : )

[@loribreeuwsma]

Does this also work for odd count peyote?

No, the method is slightly different for odd count. We haven't haven't tried the odd count method yet but when we do we'll be sure to make a video on it

it's faster because you are doing two 2 rows at the speed of one

What type of thread did you used, because the one that I uses breaks every time that I work and it suppose to be for seedbeads work... I would like to know a good seedbead string brand to work with. Thank you so much ♡ ♡ ♡
