[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

Neet idea!  How about a toylet paper role?
That might be to big.

Eileen, You might find it helpful to place the ring of 12 beads on
something like a large knitting needle or wooden spoon to hold it in
place while you bead the second row.  I was having the same problem as
you described and this really helped.  After the second row I was able
to hold it in my hand and know where to place the next bead.  I also
found it is easier using fishing line.

Don't give up.  smile
