This stitch is making me 😜 crazy!! I’ll have to watch it over and over again to get it! I trust in your tutorials..

Thank you for explaining this stitch as many times as you did. It's very helpful not to have to pause and rewind over and over. And your teaching style is effective and pleasant. Thanks again.

I have just made this pondo stitch bracelet and I love doing the stitch. I have to say, Stephanie, that I have the utmost admiration for you in figuring out the best way to do this stitch. You are truly amazing and you explain and demonstrate it so well.

I am not given to compliments I don't mean, but I absolutely totally appreciated your tutorial. First, the stitch you designed is wonderful, and second, your quiet, calm, systematic instructions are possibly the best. I followed you straight to the end, with only one exception. I put seven units on the first row instead of five. Then, after you had finished, I could do the remaining two units to test myself. I made one minor mistake, which I easily corrected, and now I am aware of it and will not forget it again. You are special. Thank you.

OMGOODNESS! THANK YOU THANK YOU. I was able to go step by step watching. I got it! I have been combing through videos and NONE, can't touch you. This stitch is hard, especially for a beginner like me. I push the subscribe button for sure💋💌💖💥😃😃🥰

I have to say i had seen this stitch and attempted it several times without success , so i had given up on it , then i seen where you had put it out there and i said '' yes'' ... there is just something about watching your tutorials that '' I GET '' !!!! I have learned so many patterns /stitches thru you... you just make it easy to follow and understand !!! so ty ty ty Stephanie

Thanks for another great tutorial. I have made soooo many of your pieces. Your tutorials are the BEST out there. This one was a little tricky and it took a little while to get the rhythm of what was going on but I did get it. I made it in silver and gold and it’s lovely. This pattern will be my latest obsession. I get so many compliments on your designs and everyone tells me I am so talented. The truth is I can follow your excellent videos. Thanks!!

I agree with everyone who say about the way you teach, you are so good. Please keep the videos coming as you are my favourite, you make anything and everything possible. Many thanks Stephanie

I cannot wait for your tutorial on the diamond duo component!!!!!!!! Enjoy your tutorials thank you :)

You are a wonderful teacher. Kind and patient. Thanks, I love all of your pieces.

Nice looking stitch. Call me crazy, but I like stitches that you have a lot of thread paths. The good thing is that you are such a great teacher. You make it so easy to follow you don't rush through it. thank you

You make what initially looks difficult appear easy! Loved the tutorial. Thank you for sharing.

What a great way to do flat chenille. I love this stitch. Very satisfying.

Thank you so much Stephanie I'm using size 11 beads and it's a little harder I found the most beautiful permanent color size 11 rounds they so to have that yellow look either. I love watching ur videos u r a GREAT TEACHER

Thank you sooooo much for this amazingly clear and wonderful video. Love this weave! It is so pretty. Can't wait to try it. Really appreciate all the time and effort you put into explaining this. You are such a great teacher!♥

Thank you so much for all your tutorials.

G'Day My Wonderful Ray of Sunshine, Loving this stitch with it's many possibilities within it's own design and with what you can incorporate on it's surface. It has the same soft drape as Herringbone which gives it a lovely feel against the skin. Like the colours that you have used and I would imagine that even if you do it in one colour it would still have a gorgeous look about it. I have had a quick look at other sites and I think that Pondo stitch is just like peyote and Herringbone they are a universal pattern..... just like purl, plain and cable stitches in knitting.... every one seems to own those stitches. I would't worry about copy right....you are using a basic stitch pattern to do your own "fantastic" designs my Wonderful Master of the Beads so go forth and create and bead!!!!!! Short novel this week as I am including the "promised ode"....(not sure whether I should have posted on FB so I am doing it here as I think the lovely beaders on that site need to get to know me and my funny ways first before I start posting "Odes")...... We have already connected with our four elements.....air, water, fire and earth and they give us our place within the structure of the Universe. These elements makes us what we are .... our belonging and our relationship with in this realm. To complete our journey within this reality we need to to meld with a life form that also shares our world..... our fellow creatures. In this exercise (before we start) we need to seek and connect with our fellow creature.... be it bird, dog, tiger e.t.c, Sit comfortably and close your eyes and ask in your mind for your fellow being to come to you. It may be one or several. When you have the picture of the being in your mind then we will commence...... I have used an eagle as an example.... so just change it to your choice of creature and bond with their movements Sit or lay some where comfortable and start to breathe deeply and slowly.... you see with your mind your creature in front of you. Reach out to touch it (it will except you as it does not fear you as it has awaited for this moment in time for you to acknowledge it) Now feel with your energy and allow your life force to meld with theirs. Allow yourself to enter your creature. Still maintain your deep cleansing breathes. You now feel the movement of your host (if it's an eagle then feel its feathers wrap around you warmly and feel the lightness of your body as you join the eagle in flight. You feel every part of the physical being with the eagle. Now look through its eyes and see the power you now command and feel the freedom and magnificence of the earth beneath you. You soar and float on warm air thermals and you feel so at peace. You may stay with your eagle as long as you wish but you must ask it to do so. When you have landed gift your eagle with love and understanding as your way of thanks....doing so binds you together in an unbroken bond. Start to withdraw your hands and start to breath more normally and on awakening feel refreshed and in control of your emotions and feel the strength that your creature has given you. Now you have joined with all that is around you physically, emotionally and spiritually and therefore you have made a full circle with the universe. The relationship that you share with all that is there and beyond what you know to be there strengthens you but when you need your elements or your creature/s then connect and ask for their guidance and help. Always remember to give thanks and acknowledgment for their help.....that is all that they ask of you. And therefore ends the lessons but not the journey ..... journey in peace and be one with the Universe my Little Polar Bear...... As always I hope that it all makes sense........ from your scribe Down Under....... Blessings XXXXXOOOOOOOOXXXX

I love the way you teach. You make it fun and simple. Thank you

The beadwork looks very complex but your instruction is easy to follow! Your RING is also beautiful!!

This is so beautiful!! I am anxious to try this stitch and also I love the beads you used in the "flower" so that will make a wonderful clasp. Thanks so much!

Very nice stitch! I wouldn't have got it without your pleasant Tutorial. Thank you, Stephanie

Oh Wow! This stitch is SO Neat looking!! At first I thought... This is guna b a lil tough to master! But after watching u do a few rows, I'm hoping to get it down pat lol. Fingers crossed. Thank ya for the great beading lessons on ALL the different stitches, Sweet Stephanie 😉💞🌼

Hi Stephanie great tutorials can't wait to see what you make with the stitches ...Thank you for sharing you make it easy to understand the mystery stitches ..lol...Blessings always

I can follow you with anything you make even if the hard things, Thank You so much

Just love this stitch, I've been busy playing with it and made a couple of bracelets with and without the picot. Thanks for sharing and great tutorial. Take care x0x0x

Love this stitch! Thanks for showing us! Will definitely have to make a bracelet!

Love this stitch!!!! I am having so much fun with it. Learning to do the stitch took a few tries, but I got it!!!! Cannot wait to see what kind of project you have done. Keep up the great work!!!!

Really pretty stitch and excellent tutorial as usual. I must try this. ❤️🌵

Cute little stitch! The colors look good together too! This one may take a bit but .... I... WILL... learn it! LOL Thank you for making it look so easy! :)

Thank you for making this tutorial so fast ! It is a really pretty stitch. :) I will definitely make a bracelet to go with my chenille rope necklace.

Your dexterity is amazing.

Thank you for this video and all of your videos. I finally got this one down and I’m 3/4 done with it.

The way I learned this was totally different. I learned just to make the base (main color A) with RAW, then add the B color between each of the main color ones, all in a round. Continue through to the side B color, add four more color A and so on. Much easier and less fiddly, IMO. No need to keep scooting the beads together.

You remind me of my daughter in law, you can ramble on but I love your creations.

I look forward to trying this. Thank you Stephanie. You're a Gem.

Precioso tejido me encanta sus manos son muy bonitas y me encanta sus colores de uñas que hacen juego con sus trabajos, saludos desde España la admiramos besitos

Pondo, Chenille are as "common" a stitch as say herringbone, twisted herringbone, brick stitch etc. Its safe to say it falls into that same "free man's land" or I would think so anyways. Thnx for your layout of it!

holly crap Stephanie, what a mess do I have in my head, ............ pondo stich, flat chenille stich, RAW............... getting mad with the pondo stichand what drives me crazy is .... how on earth the 4 principles beads (in some videos) stay quite together, I asked nicely the girl of the tutorial and had no response, At the end I will do it my way and it will be pretty for me, ... I started again with macrame ........ I went back to my begining, I made a few nice handbags, but I got stuck in my last proyect ........ a bagpack......, and went back to the beads. by the way the "star" you hold in your hand is really gorgeous, and I recently discovered the diamond duo ....... and I had some in my stash and didnt know. will you make a tutorial, oh please Stephanie but not too complicated ........ 🤓🤓💋💋💋

Love this video. Thank you so much helping people to learn.

I can't catch up on all these new beads ! I am still trying to work with superduos ! Haha ! Love your videos ❤️

Hi Stephanie Great tutorial as always:) Thanks a lot. Really liked this stitch and saw my seed bead stash to start a project. But I have all other sizes except 8 o :( :( Still I tried with 6 o beads and reduced the width by making 3 rows instead of 5. .But It didn't turn out that pretty. Anyway my trial attempt helped me to learn the stitch. So happy.

You are amazing. This tutorial is great ,you explained it so well Thank you so much

super very good tutorial you explain it so well thank you and what did you use to cut the fireline?? I use scissors and it is kind of hard to cut.

Such a pretty stitch an I love the component you made. To me it kinda look like a poinsettia, wouldn't that be pretty for Christmas.

Super great instruction! Thank you bunches

you are a great teacher, thanks

Thank you, this video is the best to manage pondo stich!

Ty Stephanie for doing this...i have to agree with u when i was searching the internet for the flat chenille this stitch was the closet i found to it to...i also would like to know the ring u was wearing in this tuturiol is beautiful....have u done a tuturiol on that ring an if u haven't could u possibily do one....?it is beautiful....u r very easy to follow an u make it so understanding.....ty means alot to us new beaders.....i have watched alot of ur videos an i have to say i love them all....

You could do a fringe where the second hole is. That would look nice and highlight the reversibility.

That's so awesome !!! Thank you for sharing this.

I've done flat chenille for years but could never get Pondo stitch. Now I think I can! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

A very beautiful stitch...a little tricky though..i did it following...where can i post a pic

Oh wow, that would be really cool.

Good afternoon I was wondering with the ponding/ flat chenille is it possible to make them something like a 16 inch necklace? If so I know it can buckle any hints I can do as to avoid the buckling so it lays flat? Thank you❤️

Thank you for demonstrating this stitch. Do you have a thread path sheet for this stitch? I have to use the library to watch your videos and then go home and try the stitch... needless to say a thread path sheet would be very helpful.

love the stitch. Working on it now as i watchthe video

Definitely had an Ah-ha moment by the end of the second row. Great demo, as always. Very fun stitch. Did you ever figure out how to finish your pretty Diamond duo component so the holes aren't bare?

Thanks so much! Got it by the 3rd row.

hahahha ficou muito lindo!!! parabéns👏👏👏👏

A very nice indeed.. thanks for sharing...

Hi Stephanie. Many thanks for your continuing fantastic videos. I'm addicted! Could I ask......do you have a video for the gorgeous ring you're wearing in this video. Thanks.

really enjoy all your tutorials so now a question for you. Do you have any that uses peanut or farfalle beads? I have just discovered those and love them.

this will be my next project. thank you

Me puedes ayudar ? Cual es la diferencia entre flat chenille y Pondo Stitch

beautiful work !

Hi Stephanie, do you have a rough idea how many grams of 8/0 beads are needed for this bracelet - same width as yours. I don't want to start one and then find I don't have enough. :-)

Your are great. Thank you. I'll give a go soon.

Hi, I love your videos. Can you please give me a hint as to HOW do you get such a consistant 4 pattern with your main colour. Mine turns out "higgly piggley" and not a perfect shape. What am I doing wrong? Regards RON

I'm waiting for my "Ah-Ha" moment.

Hermosas esas pulseras.

I know I'm late to the game but did you create a tutorial for the diamond duo component that you show in this video? I've looked and can't seem to find it. Thanks.

Hello Stephanie, just a little question. So much homework to do here at the moment, no time for beading :( What is this third colour on your mat? ♡♥♡

SUPER!

Okay Stephanie! I have completed the bracelet, and now I need to Know the best way to add a clasp. Help!

Hi, i know this is super late, but did you ever do a tutorial for the component piece? or is there a pattern i can buy? thanks

Thanks a lot, please I'd like to trata beutiful stich, but please is possible to show us hoy to add the 3 seed beads up.I 'm so graveful to you

Thank you!!!

Really like your ring! Is their a tutorial for it?

dont worry about copy rigths darling. this is JUST another stitch as many other. l was thinking he. you jump to another stitch but you forgot the 4 beads tubular herringbone. l loooove that one cause it goes so fast.

I love this stitch but I just can't do it But I will keep trying

You can’t copyright a method, in other words how you do something. You can copyright the pattern that uses a stitch but not the stitch itself or how to do the stitch

I don't see how a common stitch can infringe on a copyright. That doesn't seem fair, unless that person created the stitch, ya know?

pudiera ser en Español por favor

Wwwwhhaaaaaatttt???? You have a fb page and I'm not following? Shame on me! Love the videos-thank you!

This stitch looks like 2 directional herringbone.
