re: #143 klys (maker of Silmarils)

Knots? Who uses knots? It’s all woven in under the back of the other stitches, sob.

I have done it. It involves like 4 needles and a good stiff drink and generally blood because shit beading needles are sharp. The only plus side is they hurt less than the tapestry ones do when you stab yourself with them because …sharp.

My bad. Of course no knots-you just clip off the anchoring stitches…

By the way, you do know that saliva helps get out a fresh blood stain? Enzymes.
