CRAW - Cubic Right Angle Weave

[@laineywright2696]

This is by far the best demonstration of how to do CRAW stitch that I have ever watched. Great video.

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

Wow, thank you Lainey! So pleased you found the demo helpful! x

[@pdias8469]

You are a great teacher. At last I understood craw, you explained it so well. Especially using two colors makes a lot easier to follow your excellent instructions. Thank you and blessings.

You are so very welcome Terri! That's high praise indeed...thank you! x

[@Caroltaaffe1950]

This is an excellent tutorial. The diagram at the beginning made the weave pattern come together. I have been intimidated by this stitch. I plan to try it again having seen your video. Thank you so much

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

Thank you so much rhe drawing before the beading really helped. Now I feel confident to do it myself.

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

That’s wonderful Joyce! Good Luck and happy beading! x

[@beverlykraut1017]

I think I finally got it. Your diagram in the beginning helped explain a little. I first tried it with 2 colors and then was able to do it with one after I could see where I was going and why. Thanks!

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

Good idea using the two colours! Well done for cracking the CRAW code! x

[@virginiagaviati2643]

[@kimpatten2568]

Love the ropes I’ve always steered away from craw but am going to give it a go. As always clear instructions so I think I stand a good chance of achieving it.😊

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

You're not alone in keeping CRAW at an arm's length...let me know how you get on! x

@@JoBarclayLoggie your a fantastic teacher!!! There is another stitch I REALLY want to learn, thats how to do the Cellini spiral (excuse the spelling if incorrect). Do you have a tutorial on this stitch?

That’s good news..I ‘m quite sure you’ll be successful!!! xx

[@nishrinkhalil4078]

This was a bit intimidating at the beginning, but thanks to you, I think I am finally getting this technique. My question to you is can we use different bead sizes?

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

Hi Nishrin.... CRAW is the nemesis of many, so you're not alone in feeling little intimidated! I so hope that with a little practise you're getting there! You can do CRAW in any bead size you wish - however; if you plan to go geometric with your CRAW stitch and start zig-zagging or making a square, I would suggest sticking to just one size for the stitch! x

Welcome Dessieree!! I assumer you're talking about the software that I had the diagram on? It's an App called Perl'Art...x

[@virginiagaviati2643]

Hi would love to try this lovely stitch. I'm wondering approximately how many fire polish you used in this & in the embellished craw as well. Dont want to start and not have enough;) thank you Jo

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

Hi Virginia....In this one I used about 160 fire polish beads and in the embellished CRAW I used about 60 of them...Hope that helps! ;-) x

[@virginiagaviati2643]

@@JoBarclayLoggie Yes that helps thank you for responding!

[@elenagoveo8977]

Love this stitch. CRAW can be so intimidating for most beginners, you have done such a wonderful job at explaining it. What size firepolish beads are you using with the size 8 seed beads? Thank you for another wonderful tutorial!

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

Thank you Elena...I’ve used 3mm fire polish with the 8/0’s....x

[@hshshbsbs168]

Nice

[@jacquelinehunter8588]

Great tutorial!!! What size seed bead if I used a 4mm firepolish bead?

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

Thank you Jacqueline...you could still use an 8/0 or a 6/0...just depends on what sort of “look” you’re going for...4mm fire polished and 6/0’s will make it quite chunky...x

[@annthornton9850]

I have looked at both craw and praw patterns and I can not tell the difference

[@JoBarclayLoggie]

It's not that easy to explain either Ann - Craw is beaded cubes and PRAW is beaded prisms, but the prism could have a square base and therefore be a cube too! PRAW doesn't necessarily need to be 4 beads/ sides - it's as many as you'd like to create a design using right angle weave or RAW. Using PRAW, your beaded structure could have 5,6,7...sides to it rather than the 4 we usually use in CRAW. I sooooooo hope I haven't confused the issue any further... they're both forms of Right Angle Weave...there's also TRAW I believe....but that's another story! ;-) x
