Knitting with Beads

[@praisehymn247]

Guess what? You're right! I tried this weekend and got the hang of it and crocheted a whole row of pearls onto my project. Makes it look like a million buck! Thank you SO much!

That is very pretty!

how elegant! nice touch. Looks pretty tedious if you're going to be using numerous beads though. Must require much patience.

Hi there. No you don't cut the yarn. You simply thread all the beads onto the yarn one after the other, then slide them down to the ball and cast on and knit as normal. Then when you are ready to place a bead, just slip it up from where it is waiting for you!

Thank you for the video, what size beads are you using?

[@K2TOGAlbury]

+Judy Philips Sorry I can't remember, about 6mm perhaps. The main thing is to make sure the hole in the middle is large enough for your needle and yarn to go through.

Every time you thread the beads you cut the yarn? So it is full of knots? Please let me know, that is a question I would like to know for long time.. Great Video !! Thanks!

Actually, once you get the hang of it, you can get into a bit of a rhythm. I think it's a better way than sewing them on later!
