    Tips / Ideas you may like to try:

    *Do alternate single crochet stitches with beads for the first row - every 3rd or 4th stitch works too! (18 beads for alternate stitches, 12 beads for every 3rd, and 9 beads for every 4th)

    *For the 2nd row, you may like to put a bead into the first half of the dc & tr sts that proceed the picots, or into the 2nd ch of the picot sts, or even into the sc sts.

    Have fun playing with different bead sizes and positions...
