[[Bead stringing]] is the putting of [[bead]]s on string. It can range from simply sliding a single bead onto any thread-like medium (string, [[silk]] thread, [[leather]] [[strap|thong]], thin [[wire]], multi-stranded beading wire, or a soft, flexible wire) to complex creations that have multiple strands or interwoven levels. The choice of stringing medium can be an important point in the overall design, since string-type mediums might be subject to unwanted stretching if the weight of the beads is considerable. Similarly, certain bead types with sharp edges, such as hollow metal beads or some varieties of stone or glass, might abrade the string and cause the strand to eventually break.

A [[knot]] is a method of fastening or securing linear material such as ropestring by tying or interweaving. It may consist of a length of one or several segments of rope, string, webbingtwine, twinecord, strap, rope, or even chain interwoven such that the line can bind to itself or to some other object (the "load").
