I'd love to try it. (I'll never finish anything if I don't quit starting things!)

But I"d love to make some beaded bracelets and such.

Thanks in advance!

:)


At least it's not Monday! :D

Crochet Today! had an article about learning to crochet with beads in its oct/nov 06 issue. I happen to have an extra issue, if you are interested I will send it to you. Just let me know.

My MIL just bought me a Leisure Arts leaflet with 14 beaded snowflakes. It's my first bead project, I want to work my way up to doll dresses.

Maggie's Crochet (http://www.maggiescrochet.com), a vendor I've bought many things from over the years with no complaints, sells a bead crochet necklace book. I've done bead and wire crochet necklaces for years now (freeform, no pattern used). I have some pics in my flickr site, under my Crochet collection.

The Crochet Classroom forum. Our designers got together and created a classroom forum to help teach us these things. Kathy aka Katchkan does the beads.
