BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Jewelry Making Stretchy Bead Ring

Hi Guys,
got a pattern to make stretchy beaded rings.

I'm confused as to how to make the surgeon's knot be tight against the last bead. I can't figure it out.

Here's the wire needle I'm using. Is this correct?

Help! I committed to making 25 of these rings for a charity craft fair. Thanks!

To make a tight knot, I usually tie it around a needle then push the needle down flush against the beed and then pull it out to tighten the knot.

I hope that makes sense!
