I got some plastic needles for my kandi, but i’m not sure how to use them 513b3952851d7_shrug.gif I tied the string onto the needle, but when i put on the beads, they go on both sides of the string. Are the needles just for 3D/bigger cuffs and i can’t use them for singles, doubles, or basic cuffs?? 514c8a28ed9fc_w25.gif514c8a1da4777_w16.gif

I just treat them like regular ones thread sewing. If you double strand a single, tying the knot is a lot harder. It's easier to just go through single twice and tie one knot with the two end strands.

Hi! im not too sure what you mean by "both sides of the string" but heres how i use needles for kandi/gen

I tie it on to the end of one string- only cross 1 time/ like the first step of tieing shoes, (easy to get string off that way) it might also be tough to use it for the start of a peyote charm though?

string beads on- whether it be singles, doubles, charms, ect, tho might be hard depending on size of bead hole

tie off/ take off needle

Needles can be used for anything- I use them for basically anything, but thats my preferance tbh, but im just saying needles can be used for any project (again, maybe not every part of a project, depending on the beads size)
