How to Weave Brick Stitch
By Tammy Powley, About.com Guide
This stitch is also known as Comanche Weave and is most often used in combination with the ladder stitch. Begin by making a ladder of beads either using bugle or seed beads. For these instructions, I’ll assume the ladder is made from bugles since that’s the most popular bead to use. However, the instructions really don’t change if seed beads are used.
