Flat Stitch is made one bead on top of the other.
First string a row of beads.

At the end of your first row, bring the thread up and through a new bead. Bring the thread back down and through the first bead then back up and through the added bead once again, to end up in the right direction.

Continue adding beads in this way until you reach the end. Turn and continue adding beads until you've finished your project.

Flat Stitch patterns are even. Unlike the Loom Stitch the Flat Stitch can be done in any width.
