Fast Peyote Stitch Jewelry

In this book, designer Josie Fabre shares several techniques that allow for much quicker creation of the Peyote stitch. While this stitch is often the first stitch learned by beginning stitchers, it is extremely time-consuming. She simplifies the process with her detailed instructions and original, multi-drop, flat peyote patterns. Keeping beginners in mind, the book has 25+ beautiful projects designed with a minimum of colors, making the patterns easier to follow and faster to create.

Her inspired bracelet patterns range from the traditional wide to slim width, some include clean edging, some are finished with a stitched toggle clasp, and others use a double clasp. While bracelets are the main jewelry piece created in peyote stitch, Josie has also added necklaces and earrings to her mix in this book.
