I downloaded some free instructions for a simple peyote bracelet from Fusion.com. If you are interested in trying it here is the link for the picot edging:
http://www.fusionbeads.com/beadingfaq/techniques.php?bfid=105. I downloaded the entire set of directions when it was posted on 5-18-09 and, since it was free, I will be happy to send you a copy. I don't find the directions on the website any longer, just the fringe. The directions include a list of supplies that, amazingly, are all available on Fusion's website! They say you should use a thread burner but that probably wouldn't work well for me. Here are the pictures - I didn't follow the directions exactly on the closing loop - it was too plain.
I made this one using the colors and material in the pattern on line
I used my own material on this one. The first one was too sparkly, this one is much more to my liking.
I won't be making any more of them. It was nice to try a little kit that I didn't make but I got tired of using the same bead for the length of the bracelet. But it was a good change from the usual beaded crochet!
