Back to Beading

Another obsession but one not worked on lately. Beads. I love 'em. Spend far too much on them, make tons of stuff that my family won't wear cos its too outlandish and I don't sell them cos people aren't prepared to pay the price.

But now thanks to Nicole at the lair of the book wyrm I have found out about stitch markers and am off to make some. Tons of beads, wire, pins and rings. I feel an all nighter coming on

Oh, I love beading too. Currently I'm trying to find ways to incorporate beading into my knitting (or spinning) so that I can do multiple hobbies at once.

Another thought is to make beaded bookmarks. I tried one and it worked well, but now I need to find the time to make more.

I've thought about making my own stitch markers too, but haven't gotten there yet. I'm too worried about snagging my yarn on a sharp end, or something.
