Question
hii Ed! so i was wondering : how do i add beads?

Answer
Hello Nirvana

To add bead to a crochet project is easy.

First, you need to add the selected bead onto the thread. This can be a bit time consuming, but well worth it at the end.

So now you are ready to start. You bring up the bead only on the right side of the work. You bring up the bead before completing the stitch ( dc = yo, bring up loop, bring thread through two loops, bring up bead, bring thread through the last two loops. The bead is always brought up before finishing the stitch. if its a flat piece, you will have a row that you bead and one you don't, ( bead one row, either sc or slst to end of row, then bead next row.)

I hope this helps. Should you have any questions, please let me know.

Happy hooking
