How do I add beads to socks

[valtaylor]

Hi! I'm a new member to you site, and am hoping I can find some instruction for adding beads to the socks I'm knitting. I'm taking a class, but can't remember how to place the pre-strung beads -- my teacher does not use a crochet hook, and I don't remember her slipping a stitch, either.

Hi, Knitty has an article on how to add beads to knit items...it isn't specific to socks but it will give you the general method.

Hope this helps:

Thanks for the link! I went to your blog and I don't think its dull at all! I love the ballet camisole, and your jewelry making is beautiful. I just took a couple jewelry classes and find it so much fun -- but I never know what project to start!!! Thanks, again for your help!!
