    Thank you, Allie! I'm so glad you clarified this for me. I've been beading for a while now, but I only used ladder stitch & brick stitch in my herringbone pieces. I always thought square & ladder stitches were the same. Now I know!!

    I absolutely love these Better Beader Episodes. I was doing brick stitch a little while ago and I thought, wait, is this ladder stitch? Now I get it. LOL Thanks!
    Also, is there a video on the bracelet with the peyote pebbles clasp?

    Thanks Allie, helpful when watching you do the stitch I totally get it. I have tried to get this simple stitch straight in my head when actually doing it. I get confused when you “Chase the direction of thread you just put on ( in other words go through in opposite direction or “Follow the last bead” put on? BUT Do I always go through from opposite end of current bead I just put on AND through the prior bead next to it? In other words, do i turn around & go back through bead just put on AND around back through the prior bead to the left of it?

      My question is on the LADDER stitch. I need clarification on which direction I go in and out of the beads each time. I learned the terminology or HINT to chase the tail threads. Also, how many beads do i go through within each step? (2)? i think I get confused when I go backwards one and then add the next bead, I then have a bead between that bead. I’m 2 beads away from next had

    What's the difference between a Square stitch and Right angle weave?

    • @Potomacbeadco
      @Potomacbeadco  4 роки тому

      Square stitch sets up a straight row of beads like they would do if you did it on a loom.
      Right Angle Weave has four beads in a diamond shape and then subsequent additions use the right hand bead to be the left side of the next diamond, a bit like daisy chain.
