Thank you sooo much for your video! I also LOVE Peyote and hate starting it. I have used the Quick Start cards for years for this reason. But what I really learned from your video is and easier way to do the ODD count turn by going under the thread bridge as if doing brick stitch. Why did no one else tell me this?!

Why haven't i heard about this!!? Ive never had any wonky issues with peyote, but this looks genius for when i need to start a pattern and its difficult to decipher the chart/where to start. This is awesome! Thank you!

Another great tutorial! Thanks, Kara!!

I have always had such a tough time starting peyote too!! Thank you for sharing this- I have to have my starter to attempt peyote! The only difference, I made my starter using one row of ladder stitch and then I used brick stitch- if I had to make a peyote starter using the peyote stitch.... I would truly be pulling my hair out!!! The only thing to remember is that when you start each new row with two beads, go back through them again to reinforce them- I guess you could say, in other words, ladder stitch the first two beads!! Thanks Kara~ you are the best!!

Kara, thank you so much for this tutorial. I will be making my own starter pieces today!

This is so cute and easy to do thankyou x

This is great! Much better than working the first 3 rows (or middle 3 rows) together, using 2 needles.

Very clever of you. Thank you 😊

I'm so grateful for this DIY peyote starter tutorial. Thank you Kara for sharing your knowledge !!! I have learned a lot from your tutorials! You are a great teacher !

Omg thank u so much! This is amazing now I can do my favorite stitch without killing my hand and my patience 🎉

Thank you sooo much, preciosa! ❤ Already made one and enjoyed so much muy peyote project! 🙏🙏🙏🥰😘

Very good video teaching peyote stitches odd and even! Thank you so very much!

Awesome - so happy when I learn a new trick that helps so much. Starting peyote has always been a challenge for me with the thread twisting and the beads end up on opposite sides from where they should be (pattern - different colors). I just have to make the starter and I’ll use less bad language!!!! Thanks. And it’s so wonderful to see you back again and doing these tutorials for all of us. It is greatly appreciated. Have a wonderful weekend.

Kara does🎉the starter have to be in the same beads as the project. Great tutorial thank you

Absolutely genius!!!

That is genius! I have been using a second needle to help which works great but this is such a better idea and no need to get a second needle to put through the beads. Thank you for sharing xx

Brilliant!!

You’re a genius! What a great idea!

You're a genius! I've been struggling to learn peyote & getting so frustrated. I will definitely try that. Thank you so much.

Oh my goodness! Brilliant!

Super helpful. Thank you!

Wow! That is going to be such a big help. I was ready to give up on Peyote cause my pieces always come out wonky. Thank you. I’ll be trying this soon.

GREAT VIDEO..thank you for sharing your brilliance and talents 👏 👍 😀

Thank you. ❤

GAME CHANGER!!!! I made my first "starter" 24 wide and have done bracelets and your Scottish flag ring!!!

Genius!!!!

Thank you 👍🏼

This is an awesome tutorial. What a genius idea. Thanks so much. You just made starting peyote sooooooo easy. Appreciate it. I have actually done my starter kit. Yes, so helpful. Thanks again.

Hi, Kara. I made your peyote starter and just love it. But I'm having trouble interpreting word peyote charts that have rows 1 and 2 together. Here's a sample: 1&2 (L) 1E, 1B, 1E, 1B, 2E, 2C. How do I place the beads for row 1 only on my starter? Thanks for your help!

Kara - just had another thought ….. could you make a starter piece for CRAW and PRAW?? I recently learned CRAW but if I drop the piece or take my eyes off of it for a few seconds, I can become so confused about where I was and the position of the beads. I usually have to start over. And it takes 4-5 units for the piece to become stable enough to hold on to. Would you please come up with a tutorial for those????? Thank you again for all your videos on KZfaq.

Kara can you use your strips to start odd count?

You used delicas for the starter, can you use the delica starter to do peyote with regular 11 seed beads?

Can anyone tell me how to take a traditional even count peyote pattern with the first two rows combined and transfer that over to the starter strip? Do you start with the very bottom row at the bottom of the chart, go away from your starter bead, loading every other bead, then go towards the starter bead with the beads you skipped? Seems like it would be obvious, but I am getting so mixed up how to do it! Thank you for any help.

I really can’t see the difference between de both peyote’s. I love your technique. But can you tell me the difference about de orange and the green?

Where can I find the small board with letters?

🙏👍❤️❤️❤️

do you need a starter for every bead size?

Crazy have no idea where my comment went to. lol if you find it somewhere this is what I said about this one. I love peyote, but for the life of me can’t read a pattern. 🤷‍♀️ I think I get lost in them. Tfs hugs

Thank you for not using nail polish, it's a distraction. I like to see the design, not the nail polish. Excellent tutorial.
