A Warped Hex animation from Julia Pretl

Wonderful news, the Warped Hex animation is up on our YouTube channel. If you want to try it, any six colours you love are perfect for the peyote quadrants, and we recommend that those who are learning use only one colour or theme for the 6-bead start and the increase lines.


We will follow this up with our Cycles chapter release, three beautiful patterns, and a BatCycle beadalong. Stay tuned! They will begin rolling in this afternoon, and continue all week. All month. All year.

And soon, we’ll have our souvenirs… the paper books. I’ll keep you posted and I want to send a huge thank-you out to everyone who is beading with us, who has contributed to our store of knowledge, who supported our team with pre-orders, who are cheering us on as we wrangle this mountain of delicious pages.

    I have pre-ordered the books and am changing my email address and home address. How do I get the changed information to you.

    Wonderful demonstration. Very clear and easy to follow. More of these please. I was able to make a warped hexagon on the first try. And for me that is quite the feat. I cannot wait for the bead-a-long.
    Thanks.

    That is one fabulous animation! I wish I could have seen it the first time I attempted a warped hex! Thank you Julia Pretl.

      Agreed – each one is so much work (Julia makes them by hand, frame by frame) but then they save people who are learning so much work. It’s a lovely gift.
