Learn the art of odd count peyote stitch beading while making a pair of earrings! This variation on the peyote stitch (aka gourd stitch) allows bead workers to create center point designs like those needed for honeycomb patterns. Learn this off-loom beading technique and the steps needed to make a charming accessory for yourself or a friend. All levels welcome. Previous beading experience is helpful but not necessary. Please note: Beadwork involves hand dexterity and sitting for long periods of time.
