I've been playing around with bead crochet ropes and having fun, and now I don't want to work this morning. Definite danger of creative hobbies....

Those look great! Is there a special stitch you use to get the pattern?

[–] sparklehedgehog@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

It is just a slip stitch for attaching the beads. For the pattern I used jbead to figure out the color repeat. You can apparently do single crochet too but I have not tried that. This might be used for larger objects? Saw some amazing bead crochet coin purses last night that might use that. The rope is easy once you get started.

I’ll have to show this to my kid, who enjoys both beads and crochet

This would be a fun combo for them to try. 😊 Crochet is so amazingly versatile.
