Frequently asked questions
Which beads do these Christmas patterns use?
The patterns are made for Miyuki Delica 11/0 cylinder beads. Delicas sit evenly, so the outlines of the figures stay crisp. Each pattern page lists the color codes and counts.
Are these patterns free?
Yes. Open any pattern in BeadDot to edit it, or download the free PDF with the lettered chart, the materials list and the word chart.
How do I turn a brick stitch figure into earrings?
Once the figure is done, make a small loop of thread or a few beads from the middle of the top row and attach an ear wire. Stitch the figure twice for a pair.
How many grams of beads does a figure need?
The figures here use between 40 and 130 beads, less than 1 g. The exact count of each color is in the materials list on the pattern page.
Can I change the colors to match my beads?
Yes. Open the pattern in your studio and repaint any bead with the paint tool.
