another portable crochet project, perfect for enjoying the craft during the heat of summer!
after some experimentation with different cord types and bead sizes, i've decided i prefer the heavy-duty polyester topstitching thread with #11 seed beads. these beads are usually the smallest you can find at the craft store.
 |
| i used a 1.5mm hook with the polyester thread |
 |
| #8 seed beads and #10 cotton crochet thread worked in 6sc around with 2.0 mm hook |
although the patterns are simple (sc in rounds, 1 bead per sc), the technique requires patience and attention to detail. not for the faint-hearted!
