The ring
Make a stop bead by picking up one seed bead and then going through that same bead
once more. This stop bead will be removed later on. (Fig 1)
Pick up 40 brown seed beads size 15/0 and go through the first bead again, so it will
become a circle. (Fig 2)

Make a round of 20 peyote stitches. One peyote stitch is as follows: Pick up a new bead,
skip one bead on the existing ring and then go through the next bead on the ring. (Fig 3)
After a few stitches it will look like Fig 4.
Complete the complete round like this (Fig 5). When the stop bead gets in the way, just
slide it back a little.

Repeat the previous step exactly 8 times. Now you have a peyote rectangle. (Fig 12)
Fig 12
Fold the rectangle and go diagonally through the peyote stitches at the side (fig 13 and
14) until you have gone through all peyote stitches and spull the thread tight.

Now you have a nice peyote tube. (Fig 15).
Use the longest thread to attach the tube to a bracelet or a necklace. Make sure the tube
can go easily through the ring. If necessary, add a string of beads between the end of
the necklace and the peyote tube.
Remove the stop bead and finish off the loose threads.
