	Beadwrangler's Thread Guide
		I use sharps needles (shorter) for beading complex forms such as peyote and square stitch which require short stitches and beading needles (longer) for bead weaving on a loom, dangles, bead loops and necklace strands.
		I use twisted/flex wire needles to pre-string beads for crocheting/knitting and loom weaving and the needle eye collapses when it goes through the bead and then reshapes itself after it is out of the bead.
		Purses were often made of various size beads in a color because when crocheting and knitting, the difference in size is negligible, where as in beading, it often visually sticks out like a sore thumb.
