Hi there. The end of the cotton in stiffy is sooooooooooooo sensible ! Thank you so much. I found you by accident but it has been so worth the look ! I do not know if they are available where you live but I use what is called a split needle. Here is the web site that you can find it on. I know that they send overseas. I hope to find you again.

Hi! This is beautiful : )
I’m trying to find a place to buy a knitting spool like yours and was wondering where you bought yours? I wanted to buy a wooden one like yours! I tried google-ing (shinzi katoh, but i had trouble finding it) I’d really appreciate your feedback!! Thank u”s!!!

Brilliant! No need for a beading needle and you’re good to go!
Like the idea of placing a bead every time in between the nails and I, too, use that tool! I also love using metallic thread! Thanks!

What a great idea! I just use a large-eye beading needle, the kind with the big hole in the center and not on the end. It works for all but the smallest seed beads (which don’t have holes big enough to fit on crochet thread anyway).

Spool knitting is new to me and before I even learn how to do it you are adding the feature of beads???? I am overwhelmed and heading to the store to find a spool and some beads!

First, you are evil (and a genius). How are we going to keep from dropping everything and doing this? Second, I need to get one of those tiny spool knitters (my Clover one only makes chunky cords). Third, who the heck named “Stiffy?”

Great tutorial! :) I love the froot loop mix.

You’re definitely not the last person to think of this. I can’t see myself EVER figuring that out, even though it seems like it should be kindof obvious. Very ingenious of you! I’m wondering now, if your spooler has an odd number of pegs, what would it look like if your only beaded every other stitch? I’m thinking that the beads would form a spiral around the cord…maybe my own little experiment is in order? :-)

This is so cool. I used to make these with my children but I love the idea of using the stiffener and adding beads. Thank you for bringing such a diversity of creativity.
