    I loved the way you "needle the thread" instead of threading the needle. That was a little tip I think most people might miss, but not me. I've struggled with my eyesight for years, and this is the quickest way to get the three in the needle for me these days without a 10x magnifying glass.

    The first couple of rounds feel very wonky, but it gets much better. It's a very loose piece, so if you're a control freak and tight beader like me, it'll feel like you're doing something wrong. It'll work out and turn out very nice. So dainty! I really like the outcome!

    Almost gave up after 2 hours of trying to figure this out. So I tried using four different colors and finally figured out how to make this necklace. I have made three of these necklaces now with 8/0 seed beads. Still using four colors and 8/0's. They are beautiful. Love this stitch.

    Wow, that was deceptively difficult (despite this being a really good and clear tutorial)! However, once I got it in my head that I was always going through the second bead I’d just added, it started to flow better after I’d wrestled with the first few rows. Would love tips on adding thread as I didn’t find it so easy - thread is quite visible on this one, but practice will help! Thanks for the great video. I can’t wait to try to make more (please share what beads you used as they look amazing).

    This is a beautiful project and I'm sure it's just me, but I have tried and tried to make this chain and I just can't do it. I've struggled for days. The bit I can't do is the bit you edit out: putting the new round on to the one beneath. I end up with a mess. If isn't just me and others have problems stacking the new row, perhaps you could add a bit to the end of the videos, showing the whole stacking process?

    • @islandgirl1949
      @islandgirl1949 4 роки тому +9

      Mary Ann Neuroth, start with four beads to create a diamond Shape, let's call them north, south, east and west. If your thread is coming out of the north bead and heading to the right, you pick up two beads and insert your needle into the west bead. Rotate your work after each stitch, so that the threads always coming out of the north bead. Likewise, if you prefer to work in the opposite direction, then your thread would come out heading to the left, so you would pick up two beads and insert them into the bead to the east. I hope this helps.
