Two things come to mind. The direction of your knot, or doing it differently so the knot is on the opposite side (closest to what has previously been worked), should work.
Ideally, stringing beads on your thread before winding on the bobbin, and then pushing up a bead as required, would seat the bead to be viewed evenly on front or back (though with lace on a pillow and denser lace, it would tend to be more toward the front). The latter is a "pita" and hard on threads, but is a traditional way to add beads in many forms of needlework, such as knitting or needlepoint, etc. HTHSusan Reishus "...Lace...(want to)add some beads. I put these on using a crochet hook and drawing one thread of a pair through the bead and threading the other bobbin through the loop as in a sewing. Of course, when I took the lace off the pillow the beads were now on the 'wrong' side of the lace. I have been wondering, is there a way to put beads on a piece of lace so that they end up on the 'right' side of the lace without sewing them on afterwards?
