1st way, one size of bead:
1. String three beads into a circle, go through them again, and one bead extra so the end comes out one bead after the tail.
2. String two more beads and go through the bead that you came out of, from the first step. Go through the three beads again, and one bead more, so it comes out at the correct place to do next triangle.
3. Do step 2 again, when coming out of each triangle make sure that the thread comes out at the correct place to do next triangle.
4. Keep going, if making a circle, it is normally 6 sections, not 5.
5. Last section of the circle, just string one bead, and go through the side bead from the first section that was made. May need to strengthen it by going through all the sections again.
2nd way, two types of beads, corner and side beads:
1. String 3 of each bead into a circle, alternate the two types of beads. Go through them again and come out from the side bead.
2. String 5 beads, corner, side, corner, side, corner. Go through same bead from the last triangle that you came out of. Go through all the beads again, keep going through the beads until the thread comes out at the correct side bead to do the next triangle.
2. Keep making triangles , remember that a circle is 6 sections, not 5.
3. Strengthen it by going through the corner beads in the middle to strengthen the structure. And may also need to thread through the outside beads.
