Topics: Seed Beads, Peyote Stitch  What is the easiest way to
read a peyote stitch pattern without getting lost? - Susan Try
using a sticky note to mark where you are in a peyote stitch
pattern. Align the edge of the sticky note along the bottom edge
of the beads of the current row of your pattern. This will make
it easy for your eyes to quickly see what row you're on. Move
the sticky note down to the next row on your pattern each time
you complete a row.  Another technique is to number each row at
the beginning and the end of the row, then place a straight
edged ruler on the corresponding number on each side to ensure
you are on the correct row at all times. If you are using the
printable seed bead graph paper for a customized peyote design,
it is easy to pre-number each line before putting your design on
the paper.
