Bead Knitting
Beaded knitting is a type of knitting in which the stitches are decorated with ceramic or glass beads. Important advantages include (1) the surface and color effects available with beads (and not with yarn) and (2) the longer wear of the beads may lengthen the life of the knitted fabric significantly.
The techniques are described here for beads, but knitting sequins (and other perforated objects) can be done analogously.

Famous quotes containing the word knitting:
“your antlers like seaweed,
your face like a wolf’s death mask,
your mouth a virgin, your nose a nipple,
your legs muscled up like knitting balls,
your neck mournful as an axe....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
