Delica Miyuki peyote weaving ice diagram

Prepare your material and beads. The references used for the cone are identical to the four ice creams: DB-1832 and DB-0205
Then choose the colors of your choice according to the flavor of the ice cream you want:
Lemon: DB-2284 and DB-2187
Melon: DB-2113 and DB-2034
Strawberry: DB-2116 and DB-0236
Mint: DB-1496

Cut about 1 meter of thread and thread your needle. Place a blocking bead (green in this case) in a small knot. Leave about ten centimetres on the side opposite the needle.

String the beads in rows 1 and 2 according to the diagram.

For row 3, thread 1 pink bead through the second-to-last bead on the thread. Continue, threading 1 bead at a time and passing through every other bead in row 2 (i.e. the pink beads). Once you've reached the last bead of the row, you'll need to change direction to start row 4.

Thread the last pink bead and then pass your thread from right to left through these 3 beads (1st and 2nd beads threaded and penultimate bead of row 3).

Pass from left to right through these 3 other beads (3rd, 2nd and 1st strung).

Continue row 4. At the end of the row, make an increase. To do this, thread 3 beads onto your needle, then pass the thread back through the 1st bead (here, the pink one on the right).

You need to get this result.

At the end of row 5, the beads must be increased again. Note that 2 beads need to be threaded here. Pass your thread through the beads as shown in the following photos (steps 10 and 11), so that the thread shows through in the weaving direction.

To weave row 7 you are in the right direction at the end of row 6. Simply add a bead as shown in the photo.

To attach the last bead of row 7 and change direction to start row 8, pass the needle under the thread bridge linking rows 3 and 5.

Continue weaving in this way. When you notice a decrease at the edges, use the technique from step 13.

If there is a decrease inside the weave, pass the thread under the thread connecting the bottom beads as follows

Once you've finished the ice cream part, pass your thread through the beads and out through the gold bead to begin weaving the cone.

Weave the cone using the same technique and make the various tapers.
At the end, pull the thread through your weaving, zigzagging through a few beads. Cut flush. Remove the blocking bead and do the same with the starting thread.

For the finishing touches, draw the outline of the mirror on the imitation leather with a felt-tip pen. Cut out your template, removing about 1mm. The imitation leather should not be visible when you glue it to the back of your mirror.

Pierce the imitation leather, placing the pin in the center like this.

Glue the pin + imitation to the back of your weave. Leave to dry for several hours.
