Abstract: A device having: (a) a housing structure; (b) a plurality of pegs in communication with the housing structure; (c) a plurality of weft guides, with each of the plurality of weft guides being in communication with one of the plurality of pegs; wherein each of the plurality of weft guides include a portion that extends at an angle relative to the plurality of pegs, the angle of some of the plurality of weft guides extends in a first direction, and some of the plurality of weft guides extend in a second direction.

Abstract: A device having a housing structure, a plurality of pegs in communication with the housing and the plurality of pegs extending at an angle relative to a plane so that the plane extends between at least a plurality of pegs and wherein the angle of plurality of pegs are in different directions so that the at least a portion of plurality of pegs are movable from a first side of the plane to the second side of the plane.

Abstract: A bead stringing apparatus that enables the user to quickly restring pre-strung beads, of the type that are on temporary strings, commonly available in bead stores. The connectors on the apparatus pull both ends of the temporary string in a taut position over an open work space. This aligns the pre-strung beads automatically along the temporary string allowing them to be restrung easily by a permanent string or wire. The user can quickly resting rows of the pre-strung beads by putting their wire through the aligned holes and when the wire exits a row of the pre-strung beads the user can add in other loose beads on their wire to go in and between the pre-strung beads. This allows the user to create infinite designs and patterns of beadwork. The open work space around the pre-strung beads provides flexibility and ample room for the newly incorporated loose beads to hang down onto the permanent wire out of the way of the beading process.

Abstract: A bead-weaving system including a multiplicity of beads for spacing apart a multiplicity of warp threads, wherein the beads are pierced by a hole in their diameter and threaded on a weft thread by a needle and positioned between each warp thread, the needle having a body including an end portion having an eye for passage of a weft thread and another end portion including a bead holder extending along the another end portion to hold the beads in selected positions along the another end portion and a point.
