An easy way to reduce even count tubular peyote without changing bead sizes. With this method, you can use the same size bead thoughout the piece, saving bead money!
Very nice method. Bead and Button Mag. site has a method that's a lot like this, but you cull through your beads and find the thinnest beads in the mix. My Toho size 11 beads always have a small collection of abnormally thin forms mixed into the vial. Like your pattern, sew through 2 beads without adding one. The next row use one or two thin beads in that space. Then the third row sew through the one or two thin beads. Then add one normal bead in that space when stitching the fourth row.
@tsummerlee Hi tsummerlee, have you ever tried the website stoklasa? I did not try it yet, because there is a minimal limit for the worth of buying, but shure, You can find there Czech beads (it's a Czech wholesale site). I don't think, ordering from them would be more expensive, as an order from an other internet-store.
Cheaper beads aren't standardized well: for us in Hungary will be only sold beads, which are very diverse (although they will be sold as the same type in the same bundle) -- but these are all second-rate products, so I don't have to be worry about not to find beads of diverse sizes in one bundle. :) Good idea, anyway!
It was difficult to follow you because I couldn’t see you do what you were talking about. It’s easier to follow when you can see what your talking about.
@debthebeader No, not yet. I can't really look until I have the money for a security deposit, 'n stuff. I'll be looking by the end of the month, though. My poor neighbor lady is super upset about it. She has two kids and really loves it here.
@Aveszedelem Yeah, I know, but I'll bet you can buy Czech hanks cheaper than I can! Czech beads are awesome for all kinds of things, even for lots of weaving projects. Here's a way to remember: Quality Japanese seed beads never (NEVER) come on a hank. (or temporarily strung). They're always sold loose. Czech seedbeads are sold on a hank, but can also be sold loose. If the beads are strung when sold, they're Czech beads.
@wanda840 Increasing is accomplished by adding two beads in a space instead of one. I've got a tut, slash, rant on it, made during an unfortunate weekend in our nation's history.
@hwiseman1 I wouldn't cover the actual phone, and I see what you mean about a silicone cover...wouldn't work. However, I'm thinking you could use silicone glue to adhere a few things to a silicone cover. That might work.
Excellent idea. That way you'll be able to see exactly where you need to go for the step up, which can be hard to see if you're not sure what you're looking at.
@MiXueLe I've yet to find any "thin forms" in any of my Toho collections. I could sure use them sometimes! What you're describing is a "gradual decrease." Because the curve was pretty severe on this handmade cab, I chose the "severe decrease" method.
I just watched this again and finally got it. I'm having trouble because I have to do a peyote stone that I cannot add a backing because it is going on a bracelet after and it would not look good. I'm getting so frustrated because I know how to do peyote just not in the round that well so I'm trying to bead around the first row. Any suggestions Guru ? Hehe. Oh mighty one. just kidding. you are great tho I know people do it all the time, I'm very frustrated and want to get this bracelet done.
@imceltqpor Gawd, it was a piece of crap smoke detector at my old place. The thing had a mind of its own and loved to act up when I was trying to make a video. Nothing made it shut up, either. The landlord finally replaced it, but geeze!
In that case, please redo the video for those with sensitive hearing. I turned the sound down, but every time the detector beeped it was like getting jabbed in the ear with an ice pick. I was unable to watch beyond 2:09.
Love the tutorial! Nice to know you can do it will all 11-o's....I cant get 15-o's where I live and I have been dying to do this!! Thanks...and ps- its even better because you are hilarious....I would have done it to piss her off too:) hahaha
Nice tutorial. I assume the point of doing an even count bead peyote stitch is to even out the patterns. I am doing a keychain and it's loose so I want to reduce it. I assume two skipped beads at (one on each opposite sides of the keychain )while in the middle of a solid color section would do the trick. Please advise! Thank again!
You are awesome! I have been beading since I was a kid without professional training (Alas!) And I did simple peyote, never around a cabochon. You have become my teacher on here, I've already made some fan earrings and I've just bought three oval cabochons but I don't know the sizes :( I hope I'll work it out fine, thanks to you :) God bless, - Faith
Thank you I understood perfectly, even when English isn t my first language.... I love your videos.... I have learned a lot from you.. thank you so much for being so generous with you knowledge

@RubyStandingDEER Yes, you are quite boring. Anything else before getting into the short bus, dear?

@707queen No! Really??!? Sorry, genius, its a hard wired system.
It was difficult to follow you because I couldn’t see you do what you were talking about. It’s easier to follow when you can see what your talking about.
So very pleased to have found this channel again. This lovely lady's videos got me into peyote beading all those years ago.
the battery in your smoke detector needs to be replaced to stop the churping noise.
@debthebeader No, not yet. I can't really look until I have the money for a security deposit, 'n stuff. I'll be looking by the end of the month, though. My poor neighbor lady is super upset about it. She has two kids and really loves it here.
Wtf is this using smaller beads is reducing nope
Thanks I really appreciate the way you did the decrease. Can you show me how to increase?
No she can't....she passed away 2 years ago...😞😢
Thank you for this! Hope you’re well!
@FaithSheikh I never measure anything, which is probably a mistake. That hasn't really caused me any problems so far, though. Have fun!

Nope! I use heavy craft interfacing from the fabric store (and at Walmart). Way cheaper than Lacy's and works just as well, if not better.
Yeah, so annoying, I know. It's fixed now, but it was some equipment giving me grief.
Excellent idea. That way you'll be able to see exactly where you need to go for the step up, which can be hard to see if you're not sure what you're looking at.
I have to ask, what is the beeping sound? ;o)
That's a good question. I don't do a whole lot of increasing, but the process involves adding two beads in a space. I may do a tut on it.

Thanks for sharing, needed a quick way to reduce and this looks like it will work for my project.
Yeah, I know. I did it just to piss you off. ;)
@hwiseman1 You mean a cover for the phone? It could be done.
that beeping is annoying!
You really are great and fun. I love to watch you teach. I learn so much.
Have you found a new place yet???
@debthebeader lol. Patience and practice.
This is so great! I have been trying to find info on this stitch for a long time. Now I know how to decrease! Thank you. How do I increase?
LOL your stone looks like a fresh loaf of home made bread.
thanks for the tip, can always learn something new!!!
@magicmystery13 Absolutely maddening.
@tsummerlee AWWWWW you're so sweet. If I was there I would give you a big hug.
Funny, I was so into what you were doing I did not hear a beep.
Thank you! I reduced don t know how, now I understand a little more... Thank you so much, I appreciate your devotion to this craft...
BORING!
@filmwaah

This is a pictorial video, not an action shot. Very annoying beeping, (bird?) in back ground.
