Eventually I want to do ALL of the koi varieties...I think they're all so pretty. The black & white varieties are especially eye-catching in the hair, though, I notice. Hmm...

True...I think I'll do some with many tiny glass beads & some with "bubbles", because the tiny beads take a long time to string. Though, in a quiet way, it's a very soothing, relaxing thing to do. Probably like knitting or needlework.
