Beaded Pig Pattern

Welcome to the 3-D beaded Pig pattern instructions! If you have any difficulty following this tutorial, please post a comment at the bottom of the page on which you are stuck, and I'll do my best to help!

Step 1

Step 1 : Your crossing at your newest bead, number 15. The pig now has his second eye in place!

Step 2

Step 2 : Bring your black thread through existing beads 38, 39, and 40. To your red thread add one new bead, number 16.

Step 3

Step 3 : Cross at bead number 16! Pull tight. Your done with another circle of 5 beads!

Step 4

Step 4 : Now you have a circle of 8 beads, just like you did on the pigs bottom. You need to connect them all, so bring your red thread through all of the pictured existing beads. Number 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23.

Step 5

Step 5 : Tie a knot to secure your pig. After you make a knot, bring your red thread through existing beads 23, 22, and 21. Your black thread will go through existing beads 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, and number 22.
