    Picture of beads I hasve added to my cotton thread

    Ok, this is where I am so far::

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]1149[/ATTACH]

    So what I am going to do now is recrochet my little swatch. My plan is to feed beads thru as I go, but I honestly don't know if this will turn out, LOL

    Landon-you can find tutorials on crocheting with beads! You are getting dangerous Lady! You learn how to crochet and now there's no stopping you and your creativity! My ideas to try list is at least 5 miles long and then you come along and it's grown to 6 or 7 miles long! I will never live long enough to do most of it! But keep the ideas coming Landon!!

    I have done a lot of thread crochet using beads. Here's the link to the pattern of one of the projects I did several years ago. It has around 4000 beads crocheted into it. The doll & dress are stored right now so don't have a pic of my finished project to post here today. I'll try to take a pic sometime so you can see the project I made.

    Wait!! Do you string the beads on the yarn and keep moving them up and crochet under them and then just slide them on as you go?? Have I had a brain fart? Does it work anything like this????

    Yes, that is it! It really is simple to do, just rather tedious.
