Bead Crochet Success on Your First Try | Beginner Bead Crochet

Crocheted ropes of beads may seem complicated, but it's easy to create this earthy boho look. You only need to know a single crochet stitch!
Even if you are a complete beginner, you can have success with bead crochet. With a little practice, you'll find crocheting with beads easy.
I've been doing crochet since I was a child, and still find crocheting fun and relaxing. Imagine my joy when I discovered bead crochet, an easy way to combine the shine and texture of glass beads with simple crochet stitches.

Thank you Sandy. I LOVE this type of open, airy, boho jewelry. I did not know about Crochet thread. Bought several colors and can't wait to start creating. I love your channel.

I love my beading, I have fun with clay, I dearly miss my crochet, carpel tunnel can kick your rear end with beading I drop my needle I can find it easy, but my crochet hooks well let’s just say I spend more time hunting for the hook then I do crocheting. 😢Tfs fun video.

Glad you liked the video, Karen. So sorry about the carpal tunnel. It’s frustrating to not be able to do the things you love. 😟 Happy creating with what you can do!
