These diagrams show how to weave a puffy triangle beaded bead with peyote stitch and seed beads. If you want to make a longer beaded bead, using cellular automata on the sides, I recommend starting and ending that on the rounds of all blue beads.

Nothing brings me joy quite like a new strand of matching beaded beads. After drawing the diagrams for the flat triangle beaded beads, I stitched a whole strand. This strand features 9 different beaded beads in graduated sizes and a rainbow of colors. The largest bead in the center has a design created with cellular automata as described in my new book “Beading with Algorithms: Cellular Automata in Peyote Stitch.” I used the algorithm called Dot Arrays with a cycle of period three. The beads are light and hollow, and they make a pleasing clink when they knock together.
