Spring green

Suddenly got the urge to get the beads out again, something about peyote stitch being a form of mindful meditation got me thinking that maybe something nice and repetitive might be a good way to wind down. Anyway, started messing around with tubular peyote, a stitch that infuriated and defeated me last time I tried it... and a couple of relaxing evenings later, this:

The pick up a bead, miss a bead, go through a bead rhythm really is quite nice. Occasionally there was an invigorating tangle, and I did have to redo the whole stringing bit of it once or twice before I used the right gauge of thread to support what is really quite a lot of glass. But mostly, pretty mellow.

Today: neurology appointment and my first dentist visit in about a decade. *gulp*
