Thank you Kellie for demystifying on how to read these patterns. I had no clue how to navigate bead crochet patterns.🤗

[@mimilawrence5772]

Thanks for the great info on bead crochet. I always appreciate how you cover every aspect of a topic and make things so clear. On a side note, I really like your new cover page for Must Know Mondays. it makes it so much easier to find the specific tutorial when I want to rewatch something. Please let this be a continuing feature. Thanks again for you fabulous tutorials.

[@patriciamenard58]

I never thought I would enjoy bead crocheting till I saw the videos, this is so much faster than picking up each bead with the needle, once the beads are all threaded in line for you. Thank you, will keep on watching

[@deepagupta8902]

Thank you so much ma'am u explained it very well and in simple way

[@marilynkelley4195]

I did not even know about bead crochet until this MKM series! Thank you for all the great info and guidance!

[@kathytrombetta3438]

[@anitaoney711]

Hi. I have loved your videos. Very help full. I have just learned how to do a crochet bead ball. It was hard but worth it. If you could do one I think people would love it. Thanks

[@carolinaroncato1986]

Thanks for sharing... help me a lot 😀

[@eastendcrafter19]

This was helpful but I need clarification regarding the “plus 2 beads”

[@patriciamenard58]

Love these video, so much free instructions, thank you

[@mariastellalopezcujino536]

Hi, I love your videos. I don't understand English and I would like to understand this tutorial. Is it possible that it is with subtitles? thank you life of blessings and successes

[@brendafreeman3651]

Thank you very much for the information on how to read patterns. I still not understanding what you mean by, 21 rows plus 2 beads, do I crochet 21 rows then crochet 2 more beads? Thank you so much again, From Brenda.

[@rosaelinav8036]

[@teresaleon7535]

You are a good teacher, thanks

[@grannaboo03]

Yay! Thanks. I was waiting for this info....now of to Pinterest to find a pattern! Oh! And congrats for being a Trendsetter!

[@sgolash]

That's so helpful! I finally get it. Thanks Kelly.

[@jkirby8225]

check out db-bead software. You can design your own bead crochet ropes. It's like the patterns you showed from pinterest.

[@evelyngadaleta8583]

Yo 2021. Ciao. Donde puedo encontrar esos formatos para descargarlos e imprimirlos.?

[@edithzimmermann6246]

Thanks for the whole series on bead crochet - I just started and hopefully with the help you have provided well make something that I would actually wear!

[@GeminiDolly52951]

Question ? I understood what you said when you explained how to read the pattern. My question is - How do you know how many repeats to make in order to make a certain length of beads? Example - I want to make a bracelet that is 7 inches long. How will I know the number of repeats to use to make a 7 inch size? I have seen these patterns, and they say to use, let's say, 25 repeats. How will I know the length of the crocheted piece if I do 25 repeats? Maybe the 25 repeats will not be enough to make the 7 inch piece I need. Is there a chart showing what size beads and how many rows to crochet to get a certain crocheted length?

[@mzjazz5737]

Hi, my question is "How do you know what size bead to choose for a pattern and rounds"? I learned with 6/0 but i would like to use 8/0, 10/0 and 11/0 but not sure with the rounds and pattern what size to use. I can read a pattern thanks to you but no mention of size bead on any pattern, please help? Thank you!

[@moniquemahon7396]

That looks like it could be done in peyote by going along the length and then closing it off. Rather than crocheting it. What do you all think, is it doable 😢?

[@claygirl6133]

Great explanation of the pattern, thank you!

[@misty_roses2063]

You said at the beginning that it doesn't matter what size beads you use. But to get a 7" length from those patterns, it would have to be a certain size because a size 6 bead and a size 15 bead of the same amount would made a drasticly different sized bracelet I would think. Could you please give us some info on what sizes give what lengths? I am wanting to do a bracelet with size 15s but don't wanna start and start with a fancy pattern and mess something up.

[@laurieborell2287]

Thanks so much Kelly for all the tips and tricks when reading a bead crochet pattern. There is just one thing I am confused on and that is Rows Per Repeat = 21 rows and 2 beads - Does that mean do the 21st row as usual and then the first 2 beads in the 22nd row?

[@mzjazz5737]

Hi i love your videos and they are so helpful, Thank you!

[@fezzehparmour2756]

thank you thank you very much your videos are perfect

[@anaperez2098]

Gracias Kelly, está genial.

[@brendafreeman8714]

Thank you so much for sharing, I feel stupid , when they ask + 2 beads what row and color and where do I add them please , i'm very new at this .never made one before . Thank you very much , From, Brenda Freeman

[@fezzehparmour2756]

hi again . it will be wonderful if you have a video about "how to read a crochet pattern for beading eggs" . thanks

[@sass2387]

You offer so much. Wish I could visit your ahop.

[@parvathynayer354]

Thank you very much.

[@zrrsamara4768]

😵‍💫What is Invisible Join?

[@michellewitter9814]

Hi Kelly, if I am.making a bracelet I have to string 6 times the length of the bracelet... for a 6 around circumference. Is it the same principle for a 10 around circumference do I need to make the string 10 times the length of the finished product? No one ever explains that point...and no fell short of beads using the 6 times length for a 10 around bracelet 😣

[@Nonna_Tina]

So does that mean you have to string on your beads in that order and then you also follow the guide for crocheting?

[@shereehudnell7885]

I do not know how to crochet but love some of the patterns ive been seeing.. is there a way to convert a pattern to kumihimo braiding?

[@mweatherby2968]

SOOOOOOO, my question is how many times do you do that 1360 beads to make a necklace to go around your neck? That is the part that gets me. Does 1360 represent only half of a necklace made or the whole thing. I hope you get this, I really would like to know.

[@offthebeadedpath]

It's hard for me to adequately answer this question because you haven't told me the length of the necklace you want to make nor the count of beads in the circumference you want to use. These pieces of information make it easier for me to give you a correct answer. The best thing for you to do would be to download the free workbook on Bead Crochet that I have on my website. It walks you through the calculations for bead counts. You can find the link here: offthebeadedpathbeadstore.com/bead-crochet-workbook-instant-download/

[@mweatherby2968]

@@offthebeadedpath I can see that as being a problem. so I'll try....1336 beads, 6 beads around, at least 18 inch length necklace. Just a general, not factual question.

[@maryannecross2379]

Thank you, that makes it easier 👍

[@dawnbaker7861]

What size beads

[@Gigi-jp6ve]

Gibt es eine solche Erklärung auch in Deutsch?

[@StephanieSharp2]

Am I right in thinking you have to string the beads on backwards?

[@carolreiter6157]

Love your hair

[@liverbird46]

Hi Kelly, I don't really understand the 21 plus 2 beads. Having never done any bead crochet it doesn't make sense to me. I mean If I crochet 21 rows of 8 beads, are the plus 2 beads the start of the next row?

[@henny38200]

I have that book it's great book

[@mariacastellano9887]

Buenos días cómo puedo oírla en español

[@chidinmamoudline299]

Wow God work

[@dawnbaker7861]

So what size beads do you use

[@offthebeadedpath]

Honestly you can use any size you'd like. If you are learning a size 8 seed bead works great!

[@luzrocha8448]

Quiero traducir a español alguien me puede x favor ayudar ?

[@scrappydoll]

I have had no luck finding Ann's book and really want to find it. Any other suggestions of where to find it?

[@MarthaM4858]

I just bought the book from her Etsy site. I just typed in the title and did a search

[@susanrauth3735]

I have enjoyed this series, thank you. I am excited about the up coming fall goodies. See you all on face book. Bye
