  Step 1

  Gather your supplies:

  -Your choice of e-beads, not quite as small as seed beads.
  -Scissors
  -.5mm or .7mm stretchy jewelry cord, the .7mm is a bit harder to work with.
  -a small binder clip, this will keep your end in place (bottom corner of picture you can see what it is)
  -a towel or wash cloth can help you a lot when it comes to sorting out which beads you're using, so they don't scatter.

• 

  Step 2

  Cutting off 1-2 feet of your cord, fold it in half and clip the rounded end with the binder clip.

• 

  Step 3

  Taking one of your beeds, put it over the two ends and bring it up to the clip.

• 

  Step 4

  Taking two more of your beads, put one on each of the ends and bring it up towards the one you put on both.

• Step 5

  Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you have your desired length of braclet or necklace. And then tie the looped end to the loose ends.

  Step 6

  End notes:

  A cute way to give your creation as a gift or display or to sell is to put it in small tins.

I understand now! I was repeating step 4 over and over instead of steps 3 and 4. (There is a bit of a typo on step 5 and it confused me)

I can't get the beads to lay in an alternating pattern...Instead I get two even rows. What am I doing wrong?
