Wrapping with Beads

 I just briefly mentioned wrapping with beads and didn’t go into any detail.  Along with wrapping rope with fiber you can also wrap sections  with beads if you want or go back later and overwrap with beads.

You can wrap the entire rope in beads if you wish, usually using seed beads and securing them as you go.  I haven’t yet tried the entire rope, but these are the videos that I have saved as  references.  I used the techniques demonstrated in those videos to wrap the small section on my bracelet above.

They have slight differences, but the basics are the same.  (I’m not sure I have the patience to wrap an entire rope in small beads … I think I’m too fumble fingered).
