[tsummerlee]

@mojojo2k Use regular flat peyote with size 8/0 beads for that bracelet base. Tons and tons and tons of tuts for that stitch, including one from me.

"PORKIES" is the term they use in England for "big fat lie".

You are pragmatic and tell us what to do without any messing around. You are better than a book!!

When you say "double peyote," I take that to mean "two drop" peyote. Yes, you can mix the stitches. You'll probably end up doing just that anyway.

Bead and Button had a great article about freeform peyote a few years ago.
