It's a nightmare to see! I decided to make a set of red beads with black and white decoration on them. Never again!

The cure might be to leave the black dots raised untill the pattern is finished.

I had this issue on one bead with red, black, white and yellow dots in a special pattern. I wanted the dots in digonal rows. I got them in diagonal rows, the red and black ones in one direction and the white and yellow ones in the opposite way. I'm lucky with this (ehm) mistake for this bead.
