The technique of mosaic bead weaving isalmost the most interesting type of bead work. This type of weaving got its name because the canvas at the end of the work looks like a bead mosaic. A detail or canvas made in this technique will have a high density. And if you use several types of mosaic weaving in one work, then each of its details will be as close as possible to the original. Very beautiful and interesting patterns are developed for this technique. Of course, the work is quite painstaking and perhaps difficult for beginners, but it is even more interesting. Having used our master class for training and having mastered all the intricacies of this work, you will be able to weave with your own hands not only small bead masterpieces, but also entire paintings.
Most often this technique of beadingIt is used to create handmade jewelry, but it can also be used to weave toys or animals, and even paintings and voluminous flowers, which in this case look like real ones.
Master class weave mosaics
The highlight of this technique is considered to be beadingthat the elements of adjacent rows are not closely adjacent one to one, and the like are at a distance. Each of them is located in the gap, which is formed by several beaded woven previously. Therefore, to start to spin, you must first dial the needle once the two levels beads. For example in Figure 1a, it is necessary to string beads 6 - 3 for the first row and 3 second. The elements required to follow the line (1b). Now, we start to spin the third row (1c), wherein the beads are directly over those in the first and second beads are connected to. All of reaching next level of your mosaic products are weaved based on the same scheme as long as you reach the desired picture. If netting principle is not sufficiently clear, use a master class in video format.
To make a mosaic picture made of beadseven edge, the beads should line up (Figure 2). Here, the even edge began to be created during the formation of the third level (2a) at the very moment when the first bead of the third became above the last one in the first. On one side of the picture, the even edge is formed by elements of even rows, and on the other side - by odd ones. To obtain such a canvas, the number of beads collected at the beginning must be even.
If the edges of the pattern form exclusively even numbersor exclusively odd lines of beads, then the even edge should be woven according to the second option. In this case, the initial number of elements is always odd. One edge should be woven using the patterns in Figure 2, but when forming the other, the stages alternate. When fixing the third bead on the third level, we pass the needle into the first bead of the first level, since there is simply nothing to fix the necessary element to in the third. In order for us to start weaving the fourth level, the thread must be brought out in the direction of its creation. Use the patterns shown in Figure 3.

Master-class addition and subtraction beads
When creating bead work with his hands often becomes necessary to add or subtract the contrary beads during weaving at the end or beginning of the row.
Add one element at the beginning of a roware made along the even edge created using option number two. It is very important that the needle with the thread comes out of the last element in the direction of the edge of the product. First, we fix the last bead at the level preceding the increase and bring the needle back into the same last bead. Use the patterns shown in Figure 5. Now we put on the bead of the next row and again enter the needle into the last bead of the previous one. Here we have made the increase. Now we just continue weaving using the previous master class. If after the increase in the pattern of your picture an even edge is provided, then it will always be made using the first method.
If your straight edge of the canvas is done firstmethod, then you can make an increase in beads at the end (Fig. 6). To secure the last bead that goes beyond the row, you need to put it on the thread and pull the needle back into the first bead of the previous row. You have made an increase. In this case, the even edge after the increase will be created exclusively according to option number two.
The increase of two beads is used onlywhen it is necessary to increase the number of beads at the end of one level and at the beginning of another. In this case, we string one bead for the current level and one for the next level and insert the needle into the one that was strung first (Fig. 7).
When creating beaded canvases with your own hands, you may well reach a point where you will need to reduce the number of beads.
All decreases are carried out the same way in all cases.method. We simply do not finish weaving or skip the number of beads that we need. If you remove an element at the end of a row, then pass the thread into the last bead of the previous level and continue weaving from there. If it is necessary to remove a certain number of elements, then the needle is brought out into the bead of the previous row, from where the beading will subsequently be done, using the above-described master class. And if you decrease inside the row, then pass your thread along the already finished canvas.

To help us increase the number of beads inspecific location within the web, you need to spin at this point not one but two beads. And in the next row between them will be added one more. With this method the number of beads in this row, we can increase by one.
This amount can be reduced by doingactions in reverse order. That is, at the desired point, instead of one, two beads are grabbed at once, and in the next row, only one bead needs to be woven above them. You can make several increases, as well as decreases, in the same row.
Mosaic weaving in a circle
Such a method of weaving a mosaic as a circular,is used when you need to very carefully observe the symmetry of the pattern or scheme. Beaded distinct elements stacked in rows directed in the vertical direction and does not move relative to the sides. This effect is achieved through a series of circuits in a circle. If you will weave from a certain point, which is the beginning of the work, the first need to dial only the first row of beads and close it in a circle. And only then weave beaded between elements of the second round. You can start, and since in the flat embodiment, but only when your work starts from the middle of the product. The number of beads should always be clear. Starting twining volumetric figure recommended either the narrowest or widest part a.
