About this design

Ombre bands are one of the easiest ways to start peyote, because each colour runs in long stretches. This band uses six blues: navy, cobalt, royal blue, cornflower, sky blue and ice blue. Each band curves gently across the width, so the colours seem to flow down the bracelet. After the palest blue the order reverses back to navy, which makes a smooth wave of light and dark that looks good with denim.

How to make it

Work the band in even-count peyote with size 11/0 cylinder beads. String the beads for the first two rows from the word chart, then follow it row by row: each new row adds one bead in every other column, which is why the chart columns are offset by half a bead. At 12 columns the band is about 1.6 cm wide, and 104 rows make roughly 17 cm before the clasp; add or remove whole repeats at either end to fit your wrist. Keep each colour in its own small dish in order from dark to light so you never pick up the wrong blue.

Colour plan

Matte cobalt does the most work, 19% of the 1,248 beads, followed by Opaque royal blue at 19%. Every colour is used at least 120 times, so there are no tiny one-off details to hunt for. Every square of the grid is filled.

Working notes

Strung and stitched it is 207 worked rows (rows 1 and 2 are picked up together). 2 squares stand alone in their colour, with no same-coloured neighbour along a side.
