I'm new to knitting with beads and would like to hear suggestions. I made the mistake of starting with a really fuzzy mohair so feeding 120 beads on and sliding them along was not an option. I couldn't find a crochet hook small enough to slide through the #6 beads. I was able to make a hook from some fine gauge wire and it works just fine.
For my next project, I'm using an 82 x 0.10 crystal bead. My wire trick isn't working. Any suggestions to pre-loading a couple hundred beads? |

Can't you use a needle?

Sometimes when I am knitting with very small holed beads I string them on a very fine thread in a colour that matches the yarn and knit with both strands together.
