Learn herringbone stitch
Flat herringbone stitch adds beads in pairs. The beads lean toward each other, giving the band its rows of V shapes.
How to weave flat herringbone
- Make a ladder-stitch foundation with an even number of beads.
- Pick up two beads. Sew down through the second bead of the current pair in the row below, then up through the first bead of the next pair.
- Continue across the row in pairs. At the edge, turn and step up through the outer bead of the new row before adding the next pair.
