Napkins made of beads - master class on assembly

Our napkin will consist of identical motifs, woven from beads. The scheme of the motif is simple - it consists of combinations of vortices of different colors.

However, weaving such a napkin from beads for beginner needlewomen can be difficult, and therefore provide step-by-step instructions:

1. We type the first row of motif - on the fishing line we string a pair of white, red, gray beads, then repeat the order again. After that, the ring should be closed by removing the needle through two white beads, which were threaded first.
2. When weaving the second row, you need to type three beads according to the color of the vortices, and insert the needle into the key beads of the first row (they are marked with green dots in the photo). At the end of the series, we draw a thread through white beads along the path marked with a blue arrow.
3. In the third row, you need 5 beads per needle. The needle must pass through beads of the second row, which are marked on the photo with green dots. A blue arrow indicates the needle's outlet at the end of the row.
4. In the fourth row, you should type six beads on the needle. The series ends with the exit of the needle through the first two white beads.
5. The fifth row is noteworthy in that you need to type in 5 beads, but twice in the same color, thereby expanding the vortex.
6. The sixth row is typed similarly to the fifth, the photo shows the key points where the needle should be inserted.
7. In the seventh row on the needle you need to type seven beads, fix the arches on the key beads, marked on the photo by the green ones. The end of the series is the last key bead, we fix the thread.
8. We get a ready motive.
9. To obtain a delicate napkin from beads, you need to make eight more of the same motifs. Connect them together through key beads, marked on the photo.
10. First we attach three motives, then we attach two motives to them on each side.
11. We end the work by attaching 1 motive on each side. As a result, we get a diamond-shaped openwork napkin made of beads.
