Note: In the diagrams, the darker beads represent new beads being added during that step. Lighter beads represent beads that have been added in previous steps. The dot on each thread path will be shown on the bead the thread is exiting at the beginning of that step.
Step 1. On 2’ of thread, string 4B. Pass through all 4 beads plus the first one again. Leave a tail long enough to weave in later. Pull snugly on the tail and working thread to tighten.
Step 2. Pick up 1A and pass through the next B in the center round. Repeat 3 times. Pass through the first A picked up.
Step 3. Pick up 2A and 1C. Pass through the next A from the center round. Repeat 3 times. Step up by passing through the first 2A picked up.
Step 4. Pick up 3A and pass through the 2nd hole of the C. Pick up 1D and pass through the outermost A of the next stack in the round. Repeat this entire step 3 more times, but on the last time, pass through the 4th A down from the end.
Step 5. Weave in your working and tail threads, tying a few half-hitch knots as needed, and trim.
