Lonestar Pattern

 

I call these my Lone Star Earrings!

 

Instructions

Using #11 seed beads; Starting at the center of the star...

Row 1: string 10 white beads, join to form a circle. ( Reinforce by

running thread completely around again.)

 

Row2: Add 3 white beads; skip 1 bead on first row and thread through

next bead. Continue around until you have 5 points, ending with thread

coming out from point bead (or 2nd bead of 3.)

 

Row3: Add 5 blue beads and through next point bead. Continue around;

ending with thread coming out of 3rd bead of 5.

 

Row4: Add 5 to 6 beads (depending on the uniformity of your beads) and

thread through next 3rd bead of 5. Continue around; ending with thread

coming out of 2nd bead of 6; add 6 beads to form loop, return thread

between 4th and 5th bead, run thread around loop again to reinforce.

Then thread through outer row to add fringe.

If you make these, drop me a picture. I'll put them in my guest gallery.
