Step 1

Step 1 : In this step, bring your black thread through existing beads 29-30. Now, on your red thread add three new beads. Numbers 18-20.

Step 2

Step 2 : Cross both threads at bead number 20, which is the newest bead you just added. Are you getting the hang of this yet?

Step 3

Step 3 : Cross your red thread through existing beads number 31 and 32. On your black thread, add bead numbers 21-23.

Step 4

Step 4 : An easy step, cross at your newest bead, number 23 Pull tight, you've got another circle of 6 beads!

Step 5

Step 5 : This step is slightly different. We're bringing the black thread through three existing beads instead of two. Bring your black thread through existing beads 33, 34, and 35. On your red thread add two beads, numbers 24 and 25.

Hi Angie. All of right angle weave is just a series of circles, in this case they're circles of 6 beads. You will notice when you get to step 5, because you'll already have half the circle made. When you finish off that circle, it's time to start the next row. You don't really need to worry too much about the count.

this is really confusing because i lose count and you say another circle of 6 beads, not the 2nd or third or whatever number set of beads... thats a downder right there.
