I’m the same as you. I love to crochet. I love to bead (especially peyote and brick stitch), but for the life of me I could never ever get bead crochet. This is a game changer!
I purchased the most beautiful bead crochet pattern, but I tried and tried to do this pattern with no avail, size 15o beads snake pattern, I stumbled across this tutorial on faux bead crochet YAY I have now started my pattern and it's coming along nicely, size 15o toho beads and 20 beads in the round, thank you so much for sharing this video and made people very happy indeed 💙💙💙
I am a crochet nut and a brick stitch nut. When I found this tute, I jumped for joy! However, your beading at the beginning is off camera. That’s the most important step! Is it possible for you to remake this video tutorial so that we can see what you’re doing? It would be such a big help! Oh, by the way; I make silly noises at my dog and parakeet while I’m crafting; it’s all good! Thanks!
Thank you so much for this stitch. I do bead crochet but this is much easier because you do not have to load the beads on first and it is hell when you make a mistake. So again thank you so much !!!!
I'm so happy I found this tutorial! I haven't gotten the hang of PeyTist nor do I want to load ALL of my bead up front for bead crochet. I'll load up front for kumihimo, but it's easier to make corrections if need be. Your faux bead crochet is so simple!!! I can hardly wait to watch your 2 sequel tutorials for joining ends and for reading a pattern. Thanks soooo much!!!
Your video was full of good information but sometimes you wandered off camera so couldn't see all that you did but got the idea. I'd like to see an end result of this type of beading. Do you have another video that shows your nearing the end of a project. Is your work bendable? I'm going to hunt through your videos and see if I can find something. Hope you can send a link. Your a very good teacher.
Hi Shae, I know this old but I just want to say I am happy to see you at what you do very well. I ran across this video because I want to learn bead crochet, I will be trying. However, if it does not work out for me glad to know I have an alternative. AN instructor told me her class frustrated her because not one of them got the technique down. LOL. I want to learn the African stripes. Have you done using you technique?
Oh my goodness I had to call the magazine to get this edition because the store had no more of the Feb/Mar issue. So it is on the way and I am happy. I ladder for the start but can not join. I think I am going to really like this.
The first bead is whatever color the first bead of your pattern is. So if it is a solid color pattern, then yes it is the same color as the rest of your Beads.
Hello! I am totally intrigued by your faux brick stitch method. I have tried bead crochet and just can't do it! I have a question... you saw too add 2 extra beads .. how do you know what color bead to add? Do I just add the next 2 on the pattern? But if i do won't that need yo the pattern? Help!!

Wow this is brilliant! I can't wait to try it! Thank you!
Omg I'm so glad I found you. I used to buy beads at your store and you just disappeared.

Hi Shea,
So good to hear you are better. Great magazine coverage!
Could you please explain why you need eight to start with. Is the tube really 6 around? Do you take the first bead off?
Oh my goodness I had to call the magazine to get this edition because the store had no more of the Feb/Mar issue. So it is on the way and I am happy. I ladder for the start but can not join. I think I am going to really like this.
Thank you!
Hi Shae great video. I was wondering how do you add more thread and when you started it does it have to always be an Even Number?
4:10 starts explaining the actual materials needed, and starts the beading.
Can't wait to try this, the dark bead you started with is it supposed to be the same color as the rest of your beads ??
The first bead is whatever color the first bead of your pattern is. So if it is a solid color pattern, then yes it is the same color as the rest of your Beads.

Yes, you add the next to beads in the pattern.
