Follow Jennaya's weaving pattern using the color-coded beads shown in the photo!
Bonus:
Jennaya shares a pro tip: When there’s only one bead to add, place it horizontally so the threads aren’t visible. Thread it as usual, then pass the thread through the next bead instead of threading it back through the same bead. For narrow sections like the stem, rotate the diagram and weave using the brick stitch instead of the peyote stitch.
