Peyote Stitch How to Get Started - Seed Bead Technique - Jewellery Making Tutorial

How to Start Peyote Stitch - Seed Beading - Jewellery Making Tutorial
In this tutorial, I will show you how to start a basic even count Peyote seed beading stitch. Working in even peyote is the starting point for most seed beaders. But it can be tricky to get started if you're not used to handling smaller beads. This even count peyote will show you how to get started giving you a marker to work that first row. Once you have worked the length of your bracelet, you can remove the first row of with the marker beads. Your bracelet will look beautiful and no one will know you had a helping hand at the start ;)

I cannot tell you how many of these simple tutorials I watched and none of them made sense! Some went through every bead like 3x I don't know why. Thank you for prepping me in the best way possible!

[@delsieritchie1900]

thank you for the tutorial , it was very good. Do you have a video on the clasp you did on this bracelet please

[@reginewelch8052]

Excellent tutorial! The marker beads in a different color made all the difference for me. ...I usually don't watch videos if the person has pretty nails because I find they talk too much & flutter their hands about to show off their manicure, BUT you did not do this. You got straight to the lesson, no unnecessary nail shots and you are easy to follow. Thank you!! (Besutiful nails by the way - looks like black opals).

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Thank you for watching 😊

[@bejayhohm]

Thank you Katie! I recently learned how to brick stitch and really appreciate how simple you make peyote stitching possible. It is much easier than the brick stitch!

First time I have found you. Very clear description and wonderful up close camera work. Thank you so much!

Thank you 🙏 I’m pleased you found this helpful. There will be another Peyote tutorial on my channel in the next few days. 😁

OMG! I stumbled upon this video and I am soooo happy that I did! Thank you for simplifying this! ❤️

[@Sallyhomesteader]

I’m just starting with beading and so far I’m loving it. Thanks for this tutorial!

[@Jewel087]

Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for to start with. I started with wire working, then beading wire. I want to hand stitch, but the pattern directions just boggle my mind. LoL. So I just tried a loom, and love the look.. but not all the loose ends and clasps. You give great directions. I think I will feel comfortable trying other techniques, after. Thanks!

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Thank you very much, I’m so pleased you enjoyed the tutorial 😊

[@delsoldesigns6901]

I used to bead all the time, years ago but ended up getting sidetracked on other crafts. Just needed to watch a refresher on how to do this. Very nicely done. Thank you so much

This is so useful! Curious how to make peyote stitch onto fabric?

[@kalenecazaubon-sample1654]

First time beading I really wanna try this with blue and white for a friend and pink and white for myself but it looks harder for me I believe you explain clearer for me to understand which is great not giving up on this pattern just yet 😅

[@CeeCee1758]

Thank you for this video!!! How do you get rid of the black starter beads when you are done?

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Hi, thank you for watching. Just slide of the stopper bead and unthread as far as you need.

[@abeadfan3885]

Lovely piece as always Katie! Is there a follow up showing us how to attach the clasp section?

[@8_bruh_8]

How do you remove the marker beads at the end?

[@evafreeman9316]

pretty

[@KimberleaGray]

Love this tutorial! I cannot find where you describe how to remove the marker beads when finished.

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Thank you 😊 simply slide off the stop bead then remove the rows with marker beads carefully, sew in yours ends following the thread path. 😊

[@nadiao.3966]

Спасибо большое!☺️❤️ Всё объяснили очень просто и понятно! Это именно то, что я искала! Смогла сплести потрясающе красивый браслет благодаря Вашему видео! Только Вы не рассказали, как сделать застёжку для браслета.🙁 Приходится додумываться самой...

[@bigcityjunglecatenvisageth1422]

Very good video/tutourial. Clear & easy to understand. I like the look of this peyote stitch but have never tried it yet. I have done so much of the square-stitch, with Miyuki 4mm cubes, where all the beads get threaded though about 3-4 (or multiple) times - but I've noticed with the Peyote stitch the beads just get threaded through about twice only (& with very fine thread). In this case could this mean that very lightweight beads (ie, just 3mm/8.0s at the max) should be used for this stitch, as opposed to the heavier type 4mm glass cubes?

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Hi, thank you 😊 I’ve not tried Peyote with cube beads myself. I doubt you would get the fluid movement in the finished piece as the rounds allow this. I have used this stitch technique with rounds and Delicas of all sizes and it works well.

[@bigcityjunglecatenvisageth1422]

@@katieparkerjewellery7277: Thank you for responding, and I appreciate the info you have given too. I have just tried with the peyote stitch for the first time, with small round seed beads, following your inspiring tutorial - and I discovered I can do it. Maybe I will also experiment this stitch with very small cubes just to see if it works - or otherwise I will always be wondering. Many thanks and best wishes.

[@mordrethboehm4818]

@@bigcityjunglecatenvisageth1422 I have not used cube beads, but triangular beads look great in herringbone stitch, another relatively easy stitch to learn. Katie may have posted a video on it. I have only just found this channel, and I am about to check out what else she has covered in other videos.

[@bigcityjunglecatenvisageth1422]

@@mordrethboehm4818 It's so great being a beader. Makes me feel so proud of the finished pieces when after they have panned out just the way I envisaged. Makes me wonder what I was doing with my life before I started beading (Lmao) 😀😁😂 I am a great fan of the cubes (4mm). They make very lovely bracelets and seem to work out best with the square stitch. But not sure if I could work with triangles. Maybe might attempt it somewhere in the future, IDK.

[@miriamdelicata9374]

Hi thank you for your tutorials.I am a beginner and I am organizing myself with the materials needed.I am starting with size 11 Miyuki Delica beads.Size 10 beading needle.What kind of beading thread do I need to use ,I am a bit confused what I should buy.as for thickness of the beading thread.pls can you guide me which to buy.Thank you 💐

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Try an 8lb fireline thread maybe to get started, which is very similar to the wildfire thread I used.

[@brandycloyd4752]

Can I use beading wire or does it have to be the thready stuff

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Hi, you would need to use beading thread and a needle

[@NiNi-dt2rb]

Hi..👋🏻 there what sizes of besds do you use to make that its gorgeous.

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Hi, these are size 8/0 seed beads

[@gloriathomas6278]

Hi Katie I love this bracelet but I'm a little confused are you using seed beads or delicas for this I know peyote is delicate normally but had to ask

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Hi Gloria, these are size 8/0 seed beads. You can use Delicas too 😁

[@shellianne5767]

How many beads did this piece use. I have never done this before so need an idea about how many beads to purchase.

[@mordrethboehm4818]

Answering in case you are still wondering. Using a 23-25 gm tube of size 8 beads should be ample for a bracelet. If in doubt, choose a colour you really like and buy two tubes as the width will also determine how many beads you use. You’ll then know for future reference.

[@shellianne5767]

@@mordrethboehm4818 Thanks, I waited for the information.

[@RobinWhatthef]

Hello great video. Does the bead size matter or can I use a size 10?

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Yes you can!

[@ambervandish501]

Can you show how to put lettering in a piece?

[@cherylcherry7632]

Are you going throu ever other head or every bead. With your thumb in the way I just can’t tell.

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

You go through every other ‘sticking out’ bead.

[@DeborahStephenson]

This was wonderfully done and you make it look so simple! I can't wait to try it. I do have one question though ... how do you remove the marker beads when the piece is completed?

[@katieparkerjewellery7277]

Hi, thank you 😊 to remove the marker beads just slide the stop bead off and then pull the thread out until the marker beads have dropped away. Once they have gone you can use the thread to add a clasp or work the thread up and down following the thread path to secure it. I hope this helps. 😊

[@mordrethboehm4818]

@@katieparkerjewellery7277 I learnt peyote several years ago and, as for most people especially when using size 11 beads those first three rows take a lot of concentration until you can settle into the relaxing pace of working on all the rows thereafter. Having marker beads is a simple and excellent idea. Thank you! The other problem I find in getting that third row completed is when - despite my efforts to avoid this happening - the beads twist around and are then no longer in the right position. I am working on an 8 bead peyote strip ATM, and it was only on my third attempt that I was able to proceed with row 4. Do you have suggestions of how to overcome this?

[@mawi1172]

Its really hard to concentrate when we keep getting blasted with ads just at pivotal moments.

[@danbev8542]

You are right, but she has no control over the ads. YT does it. Also, if you can stand it, and want to maximize her YT income, let’s ads roll.

[@elizabethjones3325]

Thats how she gets paid for teaching. One can also donate money to her channel so she can keep these great tutorials coming for you & others. This is how the tutorials from her & others keep coming for us to learn from. Nothing is for free. She has no clue when the ads will pop up. Its yt way of getting us to pay to have ad free yt. I think I will deal with the ads & move on

[@nerren5066]

There’s no reason to be a dick over something they can’t control….

[@ddalhover]

If you don't want ads, you are free to pay for YT Video. There is a monthly charge, but you won't see ads
