  • DiscDuo Peyote Bracelet
This video tutorial features peyote stitch using PotomacBeads' exclusive 2-hole bead, the DiscDuo. DiscDuo beads are used in a variety of ways, and the two holes give it a lot of flexibility in designs. You will especially like peyote stitch projects, as the position of the holes helps to hide any thread paths.
