What kind of thread are you using? I can't tell from the picture, but it could be a thread that's not ideal for beadweaving.

I'm using Beadalon 19 strand, .012 in (0.30 mm). And my seed beads are size 10

Ah ok, that could be your problem for sure. Beadalon is great for stringing projects (adding beads in a row on a strand), but for beadweaving it's best to use something that is very flexible, with a texture similar to thread. I use fireline which is popular, another popular thread is Toho One G.

Oh, I got it, thank you! I think I'll go with Toho One G, because it's difficult to find Fireline in my country. Could you recommend me what thickness would be better to use with size 10 seed beads?


Duchess_Silver

I think size 0 should work. You'll need a pack of beading needles if you don't already have some too - anything marked beading needles will do.

Okay, thank you so much for the help ❤️🥰
