I have gotten far enough into another book about beading that I recognize many of them include this section for novices.  So I learned about the different beading &#8220;stitches&#8221; there are&#8211;ways to string beads that are not just pushing them in a line.<\/p>\n<p>Then the book goes into chapters based on different types of jewelry and a couple of sample projects for each.  In all cases, the beading style is sparse, with large beads popping out from between seed beeds and whatnot.  I don&#8217;t know if that&#8217;s a style I&#8217;ll emulate, as I think I&#8217;ll end up with more elaborate weavings.<\/p>\n<p>Still, it&#8217;s a clear book, with good photography, and detailed steps for each project, including watches.<\/p>\n<p><center><b>Books mentioned in this review:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?lt1=_blank&#038;bc1=FFFFFF&#038;IS2=1&#038;bg1=FFFFFF&#038;fc1=000000&#038;lc1=0000FF&#038;t=stlbrianj-20&#038;o=1&#038;p=8&#038;l=as1&#038;m=amazon&#038;f=ifr&#038;asins=1600590322\" style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" scrolling=\"no\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the first book I&#8217;ve read on beading, so I cannot compare it really well to others in its field.
