"Hi I'm Karen for Expert Village now I'm going to show you how add some beads to our square knot bracelet. First can you check the how far you've gone by putting the loop in the center of your wrist and just rolling through just to see what the bead is going to fall, that looks good, you don't want to put beads right on the edge of your wrist because it'll look funny, it sticks out funny. So you want to make sure that it's already up here on top of your wrist. That's where we going to put our first bead. Now first I'm take off the where you secured the carrier lines and your going to put first bead on both of those carrier pieces. Now if you have trouble you want to make the bead has a big enough hole to get both pieces of the carrier in there and pull that through. Now that's on your carrier, now we're going to continue our knotting in the same fashion we're just going to go around the bead so we make our loop with a knotter here. And then we go up, behind and diagonal and pull our knot up, we'll make 2 knots, I'm going to ahead and secure my carrier strings again because it makes it easier to knot if those are nice and secure. And we'll continue with another knot and let's do 4 of those and then we'll put on another bead, 3, 4"
