Thank-You! So much for this video! You were so clear… I’ve watched other videos and I just couldn’t get it… but with this video, I did it on my first try! Woo hoo! Thank-You!
This is the best right angle bead explanation I got. I could never understand it and I have always have to follow step by step. Never again. Finally I understood how it works. The clock definition is the best. Thank you so much.
Omg...! It has finally clicked! I can't tell you how long I've been trying to learn this stitch. I've watched tutorial after tutorial just to end up even more confused... until I stumbled onto your video tutorial! For me it was the "clock" analogy. You are a wonderful instructor. Thank you so much Leah!
Haha, I was wondering what you meant until I got thru a bit more of the video. This is exactly what I needed to see for a refresher cuz I haven’t picked up beadwork in awhile. I kept having to go one way around the unit and then the other way. This fixed that! Just up, out, and over to the left for my tension circle. :)
Of all the CRAW videos I've watched, yours is the first one using the analogy of a clock. I wish I'd have seen yours first. I think I would've "got" it sooner. Thanks!
Thank you ,thank you,thank you, I have persevered to learn this stitch from at least a dozen other videos ,to no avail, until I found yours, absolutely brilliant teaching, I will always follow you for whatever stitch I need to know.
Over the past three or four months I have watched several videos in order to learn CRAW. For every video it has become more clear to me how this stitch is constructed. It is hard since my spatial vision is lacking. Today, watching your video, the penny suddenly dropped. The clock way of thinking was really helpful! Thank you so much! Too bad I didn't have any FP beads at hand, tried with some round ones and despite that being very floppy I managed to see (and understand) what I was doing. I'm so happy, been wanting to master Craw for a long time and it was actually a goal for this year to do so :-) Now, I finally got it! Again, thank you!! A very happy Eva.
Great to add the new analogy of the clock face. It causes one to focus on one side of the box at a time instead of the whole box at once. Houses (ceiling, floor and walls) cause me to try to construct the whole house at once. Clocks are flat, therefore, only one face at a time. 😁👌🏻
Thank you so much for this video! I have watched several tutorials that left me frustrated and confused. The clock face reference is what made it finally click for me!
Thanks, Leah, for making this video--I'll watch this and bead along until this bugger finally makes sense to me! I have previously made a tube of CRAW using 6/0 beads, but I just bumbled through it hoping I was stitching it properly--now, with help from you and your descriptions of the little boxes (clock face, walls and floors, etc.) I think it's beginning to make more sense. It's time now, for me, to go grab a few of my firepolish beads and give this baby another try!
Wow Leah, I was having such a headache trying to do this stitch and you broke it down to the ground...thanks so much for you expertise...once I master this I hope you will have a tutorial on the prismatic CRAW...Thanks again
Thank you so much! I am working with pony beads which causes it's own problems, and could not figure this weave out, and the clock explanation really cinched it for me!
What an awesome tutorial! Thanks so much. Question: Can this technique be done with stretchy beading line? Or only non-elastic nylon? Not sure if the tension is helped or hurt by stretchy line
We have a special one custom made for filming! However for day to day beading we recommend the Beadsmith 11X14 inch beadmats: www.eurekacrystalbeads.com/beadsmith-11x14-inch-bead-mat-3-pcs/ It comes with three pieces in slightly different colors to contrast with the beads you are using and you can frame it in a regular picture frame to make your own bead board! See our step by step tutorial video here: ruclips.net/video/XVDvbYH8iRQ/видео.html
The pound weight of FireLine that one should use is less about the size of the needle, and more about the project/stitch/technique that's being created. I use 6 lb FireLine for almost all of my projects - and sometimes these projects use a size 10 needle, a size 12 needle, or even a size 13 needle. Generally speaking, 6 lb is usually your best bet and the most versatile of weights to use with any needle - including a size 10. Happy Beading!
Absolutely Caroline!!! It looks amazing with seed beads...very flexible and supple!! Until you're more comfortable with the stitch, it can be much trickier with seed beads though, because they don't always like to sit as perfectly straight as something like firepolish. :-) But yes,100% yes
Sorry to hear that, another way you can think about is is cardinal directions like North, East, South and West if that helps (ie North is 12 o'clock, East is 9 o'clock, South is 6 o'clock and West is 3 o'clock).

Yay! So glad we could share Leah's technique and explanations!
Yey Debbie! Thanks for the kind words! :-)
Finally! I was able to understand what I was doing! It was the clock analogy along with the diagonal 3 up that did it! Thank you!!
Glad it helped!

Wonderful!
You are a fantastic teacher! Thank you!
Can i please use 8/0 beads instead?
Yes absolutely, you can use any beads you like, with Firepolish it's just the most comfortable and easiest :)

Can craw stitch be do e with Delicas
Yes you can use any shape bead but it might just look different/lay different.
Hi..what are you using as your bead mat?

What is the number of the fireline that is used with no 10 needle? Thank you.

They didn't teach me clocks and school I don't understand
