Two-drop peyote stitch's long name makes it sound much more complicated than it really is. In fact, this stitch is great for beginners, especially in its "even-count" form.
So to celebrate the continued popularity of bracelets this season, I've colored up a new two-drop peyote cuff pattern for you to try. To make a bracelet, weave beads to your desired length and then add beaded loops for attaching a ready-made clasp, or stitch your own peyote double toggle.
Also new this week:
- Make the bracelet step-by-step
- Two-drop peyote diagram tutorial
- How to read a two-drop peyote pattern chart
Once you master two-drop peyote, you can look for more interesting patterns online. Here are a few of my favorites currently listed on Etsy:
- Corona cuff by FDEkszer
- Daisies cuff by time2cre8
- Michael by monjka
Are you beading up a cuff bracelet this season -- two-drop peyote or otherwise? If so, get ready to snap a photo and submit it to a new reader gallery I'll be putting together next week!
