[email protected]This is an adorable 3D 9-banded armadillo, the kind that lives in the southern parts of the United States, plus Central and South America, but this one will not tear up your garden or lawn!
The armadillo is designed to stand on his feet like he is walking but can also stand up on his hind legs.
The design is very detailed, which is why I am offering it as a video class. It is entirely peyote stitch, and both the PDF files and videos are very detailed, walking you through the entire pattern with emphasis on the trickier parts. The group who has finished the armadillo said they probably could not have done it without the video, even with experience with my designs, so this design will not be offered without the video. Please watch them!
Over 5 1/2 hours of video, divided up into five sections.
PDF files with word charts are detailed and fully illustrated. 46 pages, including the cover, plus a 3-page Guide to the Word Charts
Intermediate level. Skills needed: circular peyote stitch with a step up, flat even and odd count peyote stitch, ability to start peyote stitch without a starter strip.
The armadillo can be made in either 15/0 or 11/0 Miyuki round seed beads. 11/0 is recommended for anyone not used to working with 15/0 or those who are less experienced with this type of project.
