Designer Josie Fabre has developed a new technique that allows for much quicker creation of the Peyote stitch. This is often the first stitch learned by beginning stitchers and is extremely time-consuming. By using a technique she developed, combined with her own, original, multi-drop, even-count, flat peyote patterns she has simplified the process. Keeping beginners in mind the book has 25+ beautiful projects designed with a minimum of colors in each pattern to 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.
