Basics steps to knowing your beads

                Ending/adding fishing line/thread (F.L)

 To end a F.L, weave back into the beadwork, following the existing F.L path and tying two or three half-hitch knots around the F.L between beads as you go. change directions as you weave so the F.L crosses itself. sew through a few beads after the last knot before cutting the F.L.

To add a F.L, start several rows prior to the point where the last bead was added. weave through the beadwork, tying half-hitch knots as you go, and exist where you left off.
