Thread the needle through the second hole of the last strung seed bead from the third row and string 2 seed beads in the corners of the previous row according to the drawing (fig. no. 4) and then string 2x 1 beads on the individual sides between the seed beads. A total of 16 Twin seed beads have now been strung in this row. End the stringing with a firm knot and pass the end of the line through the holes in the nearest seed beads. In this way, you will create six parts (fig. no. 5) which will then be sewn together.
