Choose colors without changing the construction

Keep the bead shapes and sizes specified in the pattern. A different shape is not always a direct substitute, even if its measurements look similar. Lay your colors side by side first; a light-and-dark contrast can make a repeated pattern easier to see.

Use each PDF for the complete quantities, thread path and finishing steps. Check current supply availability before planning around an exact pictured color.
