In beadwork various technicians and receptions are used. The simplest reception – usual threading of beads on a thread. Alternating beads in a certain order, it is possible to achieve any pattern.

Also the technology of beadwork in "dagger" which else is called "monastic weaving" will be suitable for beginners. It is necessary to begin weaving with threading four biserinok. Biserinki settle down in the center of a thread.

It is necessary to pass the second end of a thread throughout the fourth biserinka so that it was directed opposite to the end of a thread on which the biserinka is strung. This reception is called as "a counter nizaniye", "crossing".

Further on each of the ends of a thread it is necessary to string on one biserinka. After that on any of the ends of a thread to string one more biserinka, and to pass the second end of a thread through a biserinka in an opposite direction. One more link of a chain "dagger" turns out. It is necessary to repeat this operation before achievement of the necessary quantity of links of a chain.

Weaving by "dagger" can consist not only of one, and also of two, three, four and more rows. In order that podplest to the first row of a chain following, it is necessary when weaving the last link of this row on one end of a thread to string three biserinka, and to leave to the second free. To close a link the end of a free thread is passed through the third biserinka and tightened.

Further weaving of the second row begins. On the top thread two biserinka, on lower – one are strung. The top thread at first passes through an opening of one biserinka strung on the lower thread and then through an opening of a lateral biserinka of a chain link penultimate in the first row.

Then on the second thread two more biserinka are strung, the first thread remains free and it should be passed through an extreme biserinka on the second thread. Other links of a chain are in the same way carried out. On end of the second row it is possible to begin similarly the third, fourth, etc.

Chain "Zigzag" - one more option of a simple chain which the beginner can easily weave. On a thread three biserinka are strung, in the first two the end of a thread is passed and tightened. The first link of a chain turned out. Further it is necessary to string two more biserinka on a thread and to pass the end of a thread through an extreme biserinka of the first link and the first biserinka of the current link of a chain. To continue a chain before obtaining necessary length.

Alternating in chains of a biserinka of various flowers and the sizes it is possible to receive every time absolutely different products.
