Category:

Jewelry

Type:

Ring

Skill Level:

Novice

Basic Skills Necessary:

All you need to know is how to thread a needle!

Pattern Description:

This project includes the beading patterns for all of the rings shown, as well as a complete tutorial on even count peyote stitch using photos and diagrams. It explains how to follow the pattern, add more thread, and finish your own custom fit beaded rings. It's based on an incredibly popular blog post that helped a lot of readers get started on peyote stitch.

I usually see Delicas and Tohos sold in small tubes or 5-7 gram packages. One package of each color you want to use will generally be enough to make at least 2-3 rings.

Sizing / Finished Measurements:

All rings are made to fit.

Materials:

Cylinder Style Size 11/0 Seed Beads (Delica and Toho are common brands)
Beading Thread - I use 00 Nymo
Beading Needles - I use size 12 needles, but any craft store beading needles should work
