Not sure if this helps or not, but when you work with beads, you have to string on the beads first and pull beads up into your project as you want them.

I have a necklace someone gave me but she had made it so long ago that she couldn't tell me how to do it.  I think it had crochet thread, as the #10 stuff, with beads not much larger than seed beads.  

I have never tried it but I think the idea is that the beads cause the chain to turn as you make it because of the size of the beads.  I would really like to make one of these.

Hello Valerie
Yes, I have done one using memory wire and beads and it was really pretty. I have heard of these being done with yarn as well. I was thinking of teaching several classes next year and this was one of the ones I had been thinking about teaching.
