Last time I showed you how to do the St
Petersburg Chain. Now that you have
mastered that stitch, the Double St.
Petersburg Chain should be easy to learn.
*Please note in the illustrations the C bead is drawn as a drop bead, but in
the finished sample I used seed beads instead. You can use either bead.
|
Start by waxing and stretching your thread, use
Nymo D or C-Lon & a #11 or #12 beading needle. Tie in a "stopper"
bead, leaving about an 8" tail and begin at step #1.

1. Follow the
instructions to make the St
Petersburg Chain Bead stitch pattern. This piece will be
called the Base Section in the future steps.
|
 |
2. Start a new working
thread with a stopper bead and go with working thread up through the 1st
B bead added in the Base Section piece in step #1.
Pick up 6A, go with thread up through the 3rd and 4th A beads just added in this step. |
 |
3.
Pick up 1C, go with thread down through the 4th, 3rd and 2nd A bead,
step #2, up through the B bead in the Base Section, step #3, and the 6th and 5th
A beads, step #2.
|
 |
4.
Pick up 4A, go with thread up through the 1st and 2nd A beads just
added in this step. Make sure to pull up thread so that the 1st A bead added
in this step is snug and next to the 5th A bead, step #2.

5.
Pick up 1C, go with thread down through the 2nd and 1st A beads, step
#4, up through the 1 B bead, added in the Base Section, step #6 or step #9,
and the 4th and 3rd A beads, step #4.
|
6. Continue by repeating steps #4 and #5 until
you reach the end.
That’s it, Happy Beading!

Wow, nice blog. Here I am getting a good idea about Double St. Petersburg Chain Bead stitch. Really it’s so interesting and I am enjoying a lot. But my favorite is amber beads very much. In DR Fine Jewels I learn a lot about amber beads. Keep us updated and Thanks for giving such a nice news.
Oh, this tutorial looks really great. I will have to give it a try.
