Come join me and gather around my CRAFTABLE where i share my bead weaving lessons and projects for beginners and also in depth crochet lessons and cute little projects for yourself and your home. My thought behind this channel is to give back to the community what i have learnt over the years from various online sources.
Hi I notice that you close your circle with a slip stitch. Other methods I have noticed on videos don't close the circle with a slip stitch and just pull the bead down. Do you prefer closing with the slip stitch? Thank you or your reply. Patricia
Hello Yes I close my first circle with a slip stitch and also bead crochet my first bead in the same place. I don’t slip stitch to close in further rows, it’s all worked in spirals. I close the first round with a slip stitch because it gives me a good grip to continue my bead crochet slip stitch. Of course it works even if you don’t close the first round. You can continue to work in spirals right from the first round. But I prefer closing it and there is no change in the look or how it works further.
@@CRAFTABLE_JBS Thank You for answering and explaining. Recently I have started to close it this way too. I used to do the other method just pulling the first bead down and starting the spiral this way but it was not always easy as the beads would sometimes slip into the circle on the second and third row so I have stopped doing it now that way and do it now like you do. Love your videos and you explain so well. Your work is beautiful.I have learnt so much from watching your videos.Thank you and Blessings. Patricia
madeinindiabeads.com/collections/czech-glass-seed-beads This is an Indian website where you get all jewellery related supplies. You must look for Czech seed beads. It’s available in various sizes. I usually buy size 8 or size 11. 8 is bigger beads and 11 is smaller size. I usually use size 8 for the bead crochet necklaces. And you can choose your preferred colours.

Hello again, I'm so sorry to bother, I'am very embarrassed and sad that I haven't been able to get this technique. Just Please a couple of questions: 1. do you have a video on how you make your starter tubes with 8 seed bead around? and 2. Do you know if I can send you a picture of what im doing via: you tube? Thank you so much. Hope this finds you well.
Thank you for reaching out to me. I’m always available to help and share my experience, so please don’t feel sorry. Here I am sharing a link to my 8 bead starter rope tutorial. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-beVYMaZoGKc.htmlsi=jlXXdVjqw5IU4dFA I would to see your work and guide you. I guess you should be able to post your pictures in the comment section.
Thank you. I printed an image from Google or Pinterest, I don’t exactly remember. And then like I explain in the tutorial, I have tweaked it to a multicolour daisy flower bracelet.
THANK YOU for the time you take to put your videos together. NOBODY else has the clear close ups and instruction that you provide to be sure that a beginner like me can save a lot of frustration and time. AND your starter tube video is the BEST!!!!!! That video alone has helped me sooooo much. I appreciate you sharing your experience and knowledge with us.
Thank you so much for your appreciation. I’m glad my videos as useful to you. Please support my channel by sharing them with fellow beaders. And please subscribe if you haven’t already. Thank you.
Like isn’t the word 🤩 this is fabulous , this is great news 🤩 thank you so much for sharing this video. I will use this from now on forever. I never did more than 6 speeds. Because I always lose my space I’ve been doing this for about 20 years off and on and this will help me to be able to do at least eight or more thank you so much for sharing😁🌹
Thank you so much for your appreciation. I’m glad this was useful to you. Since you have already been making tubular bead crochet ropes, I suggest you watch my other videos in the same playlist where I have a tutorial to make a bead crochet starter rope easily with big beads, you won’t lose the count and it will be a valuable addition to you. You can make a starter rope with big beads and it can be used to make a bead crochet rope with any size beads. Please try it.
Thank you so much for your appreciation and for your support. Please subscribe if you haven’t already and help me by sharing the video with fellow beaders. Thank you.
@@CRAFTABLE_JBS You are so welcome.Your work is so lovely.For your bracelet how many rep did you do of the 23 beads to make the bracelet when you made it a little larger,as I think that size would be best for me too. Thanking you for your reply. Patricia
@@patriciagimay9195 I actually didn’t count the number of repeats. I was aiming for 42 inches of beads. And like I have already mentioned in the previous video I stopped at the end of a repeat even after I reached 42 inches. I’m guessing 45 to 45 inches of beads would make a good size that you are looking for.
Hello, thank you so much for your tutorial! I’m just beginning with big (1cm) round beats, but it looks not appropriate for beginners… Do you have any advice? Yours looks more “squarely”… do you think it’s a better? It’s so difficult to have always the same tension on round beads…😳 Maybe I should try with wooden beads, they should be less slippery? Thanks a lot again for your help! Stay safe 🙏🏼🫶🏼
Thank you for stopping by and showing your appreciation. 1 cm round beads will work for a beginner provided you are using cotton thread which fits snugly in the hole of your bead. If not, the beads tend to slide easily on the thread thus making it difficult to handle and keep the right tension. If i suggest a bead size number it would be seed bead size 6 which will work. Again make sure the cotton thread you use is thick enough for the bead hole. Often in my experience of teaching this, I’ve come across students who overlook this while beginning to learn. The beads I’ve used is some random uneven beads and it had I used a thinner thread I would also have problems with tension and slipping.
Thank you for your appreciation. Please do start making your bead crochet rope, you will love it. And also follow my other tutorial for using starter rope for making your future bead crochet ropes. Cotton thread is best. When you are practicing, choose a cotton thread which sits comfortably in your bead hole. Later you can graduate to smaller beads and thinner thread.
Thank you. Appreciate your compliments. While you are here you must check out my other bead crochet videos, especially the starter rope method. Bead crochet will be easier.
I understand you want the link for this tutorial. Is that right? Here it is. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mFkEYrxfDTU.htmlsi=TNWMy7uH98KxsGSA
Thank you for your appreciation. You should also check out my video tutorial for using starter ropes to begin bead crochet. It eliminates the need struggle to start a neat crochet rope. Here is the link. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-INFUHhnEb6g.htmlsi=FQ7tL0xl_3HrcNbP
You should cotton thread size 10 and seed bead size 8 or 6 if you are a beginner. I would also suggest use any thread that fits the hole of the beads you choose to crochet. Later you can switch to thinner threads and smaller beads.
THANKING YOU XXX your instructions were wonderful and so clear to follow.I shall make the starter too,it will be so helpful I look forward to trying to make the crochet beaded rope bracelet with the invisible join. Thanking you so very much. Blessings Patricia
Thank you for your appreciation. Yes, definitely having a starter tube is indeed a blessing. It’s so easy to start a bead crochet rope like this. And definitely very helpful to start with a starter rope, which will give you a clean end to understand the invisible joining.
@@CRAFTABLE_JBS Yes I agree. having a starter tube will really be so very helpful for starting and ending the ends of the ropes.It will be just perfect.when I get better I shall try it too with the thinner thread. I usually use Gutterman heavy duty thread with a 0..6( or O;75 crochet hook with size 11 seed beads;.I am thrilled with how you done the invisible rope.I am so happy. Blessings. Patricia. Thank you so very much.
Thank you so much for helping me. I' m extremely Grateful. So would you say that , crochet tube and rope is the same as tubular bead crochet? And it goes in a spiral, is this correct?
Crochet tube or crochet rope is without beads, used for bag handles, and also used as chain to hang pendents etc. its made usually with single crochet stitches in a spiral. Whereas tubular bead crochet is making tubes of crochet with beads in a spiral.
Hello and Good Morning, Hope this request finds you and your family well? I' m still having trouble trying to do my friends necklace but I don't want to give up...I think I finally got the technique down, I just have to get coordinated with my hands. Lol. Anyway, my friend recently gave me some plastic tubing and she says it goes inside the hole of the necklace. I' m totally confused and was hoping I could PLEASE bother you again for some Help? 1. is there a difference between tubular and bead crocheting? I saw a video where they are crocheting the beads just together by themselves and I saw some that are crocheting around a tube of some kind; straw, cotton material that is round or the plastic tubing that I have. 2. Can I continue and feed the tubing into the hole of the necklace later? 3. Do you have any videos explaining or showing the difference? I've tried to google what is the difference but can't find any information.
Good morning and thank you for reaching out to me. I’m glad you are progressing well to bead crochet in the round or tubular bead crochet. Like I said earlier it takes some practice before being able to make a rope. Beads are used in crochet in two ways. Tubular or flat. When we use beads to crochet items like lace, trims, scarves or any item of clothing, mats and stuff like that, it’s crocheting with beads. Likewise when we crochet something tubular, it’s then called tubular crochet. Some cording, tube and even embroidery floss are used to pass through the tube to give it more structure and maintain its shape. Usually this is added after completion of the crochet tube or rope. As the circumference of the bead rope increases the hollow of the tube gets bigger, thereby needing some extra cuts support to hold the tubular shape. It’s then some reinforcement is introduced in the form of tube, embroidery floss, etc.
I have rarely seen anyone bead crochet in the round, using a tube as you make the rope. It’s always added in the last before finishing. If you want to add reinforcement for your existing , you will first have to make sure there is enough room to run the tubing or anything through the bead crochet rope.
I don’t have any videos explaining this. Which now gives me an idea for creating content. Thank you. I’ll get working on the tutorial. If the circumference is 6 to eight beads ( size 11 ) then you may not need any extra tubing to hold the rope.
@@CRAFTABLE_JBS Thank you so much for helping me. I' m extremely Grateful. So would you say that , crochet tube and rope is the same as tubular bead crochet? And it goes in a spiral, is this correct?
@@CRAFTABLE_JBS Yes the project is 8 beads around in circumference and im pretty sure im using 11/0 seed beads just not sure what size the thread is that my friend gave me to use.
Please can you make a brick stitch tube tutorial? I have watched others, but you are very clear as to what you are doing. I appreciate your teaching. thank you for being so generous with your talent.
Thanking you so very much for your wonderful videos. I will try to make this lovely tassel with a slip stitch crochet rope to pass through the loop Do you have a viideo showing how to join the two ends of a slip stip crochet rope with invisible join. I tried it with slip stitch crochet rope bangles but found it a bit difficult. I have just subscribed as your work and teaching is Masterclass. Thanking you. Patricia
You are welcome. I’m glad you liked my tutorial. I’ll be shortly making a tutorial for an invisible join in bead crochet. I’ll let you know when it’s up. Thank you for subscribing and showing your support. I would love to see your bead crochet rope with the tassel. I’m sure it’s going to be the beginning of many more to come.
@@CRAFTABLE_JBS Thanking you for your reply.To be honest I don’t think that I can pass a photo when I finish the crochet rope with your beautiful tassel. I am not that young and not very clever with a computer :) Thank you too for making when you can the video with the invisible join on a slip stitch rope.I am still learning the art of crochet beading.For the moment I am working on little bracelets using Miyuki Tila beads and also working with Superduos I love these little beads.So very beautiful . I thank you again and look forward to learning with your lovely work. Blessings and many thanks. patricia
@@patriciagimay9195 I appreciate your enthusiasm to learn and make bead jewellery. Enjoy your craft and hobby. It’s ok if you can’t post pictures. I was just curious to see what beaders have learnt from me.
I'm sorry, it says there is a free tutorial on the bangle, but I can't find it... Also Im working with 4 colors and I keep on having to undo it because I keep losing my place. Any suggestions?
Hello, I visited your RU-vid channel and your content is so good. But unfortunately there are some problems in your channel. As a result more people are not watching your videos. But why? Do you want to know about it?
