RE: Native American Style Beadwork
I've heard that too, but in Iranian rug weaving. It's to remind us of imperfection and also of the human being who hand-tied every knot. Or strung every bead in your case. Cool how it's cross-cultural.
In my brain though, the first person to make a mistake was like, "Dang it. Well, I can always tell people it symbolizes imperfection." Heehee.
