Sandbeads 2 different colors (bead a and bead b)

Step 1: String 4 bead a and 4 bead b.

Step 2: Pass your Needle into the 4 bead a from the bottom (note that you will be working upwards i.e bottom to up)

Step 3: String 1 bead a and 4 bead b.

Step 4: Pass your Needle into the last 4 bead a   i.e the 3 from the previous step and the recently added 1 in step 3.

Happy Beading.
