    Pearls are not my thing. But I know people who specialize in
    stringing pearls. I think the technique they use originated in Japan
    and it is the most attractive look I've seen. It's something that one
    is not likely to pick up on their own. The knot is different than the
    one most seem to use. 

    It's not that one can do it in different ways; but if you're using
    good pearls it seems the way to go. If you're using inexpensive
    pearls, whatever works. 

    Every year in Tucson there are hugh tents with so many pearls one
    wonders if there is anything left in the seas.
