I like the way that you show this video. 😊 I can understand it better. I have looked at other videos and yours is better.
One of the most difficult beading to video, I think anyway. U did a great job. Out of about 25 I’ve watched I would rate it at about 23. Thanks soo much.
The best and most simple tutorial I've found. You keep it very straight forward without a bunch of filler speech to distract one from the lesson. The way you explain it just clicks well with my brain. Thank you for the awesome video!
Thanks for your support! : )
I lost track of how many you tubes and other things I've watched trying to learn bead crochet. OMG you are the first and ONLY person i've been able to totally understand. You've make it sssssoooooooooooooo easy to. I don't know if I'll ever be able to thank you enough. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart(and soon the bottom of my wallet)
): Finally someone to tell me how to workout the right amount of beads for a project!! This has helped me a lot!!
Thank you, Julie of Beadaholique, for creating the clearest instructions and techniques for bead crochet that I have ever seen.
Now I know why your program is called beadholique,,when ever I wanna learn something,I just turn to your Chanel. I have learned several things, thank you, the way you teach amazing,,very easy to learn.
Thanks for your kind words!
You made the tutorial look so easy. I like the two color and thought it would work out fine if you are following the next bead on the string. You are a very good teacher, easy to understand. Thank you.
I don't think you can after you have started, however you can add more beads to start with prior do you have room for some slack
I'm so excited to start
THANK YOU! this has been the best bead crochet TH-cam video I've seen- finally I was able to make that bracelet (with 6 beads instead of four, but the mechanics are all the same). I saw at least 7 different videos- even a computer version, and always ended with a hot mess and questions... thank you again :)
The same here!!!!
Very nicely done! About a thousand years ago (in the early 1970s), the ladies in my woman's organization made pearl rope necklaces. We used a very fine cord with very small white pearls. I still have the necklace. I can't remember how we made them, but your explanation seems quite clear. Thank you!
You are a wonderful teacher. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.
The best bead crochet tutorial I have found! Finally it works 🙌 Thank You!
I watched several bead crochet tutorials but yours nailed it for me. Thanks.
Thank you for a great video. Tried this a long time ago and was not to try again. But now my first bracelet is almost done :-)
I wanted to thank you for this video. I’ve been watching and following along with dozens of videos and no one showed it quite as clearly as you did. In particular the deliberate show and tell on changing the direction prior to joining in the round, and showing precisely where the hook gets inserted, as well as how the thread goes between the beads helped everything kind of click into place for me. Every other video I watched said those things all happened, but didn’t really show me how. So thank you for being perfectly clear for me, I’m excited to go make things now!
Thanks Jessica it's always great to hear that one our older videos is still helping people learn years later, glad we could help!
Thank you for this video been watching a few how to's on this particular technique and they were all difficult to follow ...Your tutorial made the most sense and after a time I actually got it ...Thank you so much!!
This is the most simple tutorial I've found. I love it. You don't try to make the language flowery or dramatic and so focus on exactly what we need. The movements are simple, the video quality is wonderful. In combination with your clear and consice delivery makes this my favorite video hands down.
Your feedback is appreciated. Thanks for watching!
thank you so much. After watching several videos, yours explain it the best.. thanks and keep them coming
Very clear tutorial, much appreciated.
I have been struggling trying to do this technique for a month. You explained it so well that the light bulb finally went off. Thank you so much ❣️
Thanks Leigh, so glad we could help!
Very good tutorial. Thank you so much.
That was helpful! Thank you very much! 👍
That was a great video. I've been looking for this technique and it's like you are my very own teacher. Thanks for taking the time to show us and excellent explanation. Continued success. Love PegEgg
You def make this look easier than other instructions that I've tried to follow... def going to give this a whirl again... thanks :)
Great tutorial, thank you, I first tried a spiral from a book, it wasn't very well explained (drove me nuts) this tutorial is very well done for the beginner, I've just followed along to this tutorial while trying a spiral for myself, and it came out great. I'm off to practice with much smaller beads now for my project, thank you :)
Great instructions. Thank you.
Very well explained.thank you!
I just got the stitch right today and would have started with an 8/0 (but my bead store didn't have the colors I needed for my project) so I did a 6/0 with a base of 6 beads and it's coming out beautifully!
Thank you so much for this clear and nice tutorial.
Thanks for taking the time to write back. The one I'm thinking of is a spiral bead necklace but, the beads are strung in a sequence that when crocheted, they form a rose pattern..I'll keep looking, i love your tuturials because they are very concise and step by step. Will check out the daisy chain. Thanks
You make this look very doable! I've tried this before and I'm not really sure about it. I'm going to give your technique a try! I'm going to give your technique a try.
Great tutorial, thanks!
Great way to learn something new.... thank you
Glad we could help!
Seriously most helpful video I've watched. I've watched so many and after this I think it's finally starting to click! Thank you so much
Thanks Taylor, happy we could help!
Beautiful so beautiful I love it I'm doing to make one too
clear and easy to follow! did you stiffen the thread so you could string without a needle? I do not have the thread you used but I have Pearl cotton, can I stiffen the end with nail polish, beeswax or somehting? Thanks!
tank you very much ! good expleination and you have une voice very nice too !
Good tutorial thank you
Hi,Love your work. Can you do a beaded crochet lariat with tassle. Thanking you;
Hi, great tutorial! Could you please tell me approximately how long is in average your starting thread of beads - for a choker and a bracelet? thank you!
+beadaholique
have you made landyards for keys?
I wanted to add a tip. If you are having trouble starting the tube, work the first inch or so around a straw or skewer, etc. (something that your work will fit around comfortably) that will hold the tube open for you. It is also a good idea to keep a smaller size needle or hook at hand just in case you drop a stitch and need to pick it up.
I used a size 6 in this video, and I've yet to use a plastic crochet hook since we do not carry them.
Love your tutorial very helpful the only problem I find ( as a beginner) is no many videos give you the size of bead to use.
What size were used in this demo please.🌹
Hello, Love your video and Thank you.
I don't know if there is a difference between spiral and tubular but can I use this same technique your showing for tubular? And if not do you have a video showing tubular bead crochet. Thanks again
AMAZING tutorial!! What if you don't want a clasp. How do you join the two sides together?
Even though I have been crocheting since childhood I really thought this would be difficult. After 6 minutes I thought maybe I could do this and by the end of the video I think I can do this. Will try anyways...
Hi! Are you thinking of the daisy bead weaving stitch? We have a video for that here: "How to Bead Weave a Daisy Chain". Other then that, I am unfortunately not quite sure how to make a rose appear.
Hi, I think the one you are thinking about is the old crochet rope flower necklace: String 19 white, 2 green, 3 white, 1 green, 2 pink, 2 white, 1 pink, 1 gold, 1 pink, 2 white, 2 pink, 1 green, 3 white, 2 green, and 19 white. Original pattern called for 38 white beads between each flower, but I wanted my flowers closer together, so I put 19 instead of 38 whites.
Hi can you say how many in the round for the old crochet rope pattern that you explained in your comment and what size beads that you used @alenneclark377 Thank you for your reply Patricia
Thank you so much for sharing your technique. I was about to give up. Based on your experience which size beads should I start with and what type of cord or thread is best. I tried the S-lon and for me it was a little difficult.
NiceyLuvstubing59 I would recommend starting with pearl cotton, it is very soft and flexible. For the bead size, I would start with a 6 or 8 seed bead and
make sure to use contrasting colors. It helps TREMENDOUSLY to be able to see the different colors start to spiral and figure out which one goes
next and where.
thank you shareing this veiod
merci super
Great tip to use high contrast beads and a thicker cord as a beginner, which is what I am.
For your bracelet of 6", how many beads did you end up loading? Total or each of the 4 colors. I'll extrapolate that to my wrist size.
Gonna give this tech a try for sure! TFS!
You would end the beaded crochet as seen in the video, making sure to leave a tail of at least 12 inches. Thread a big eye needle onto the tail. Next, line your spiral ends (the start of your crochet and the end of your crochet) so that the spirals look uniform and literally stitch your two sides together by going back and forth and in between your crochet until the sides are secure. Tie periodic knots within your stitching. Do the same thing with the tail from where you started your crochet.
So happy to have found your tutorial. Many years ago we young ladies made many of these beautiful necklaces (which I still wear) one of which had a rose patterned in it. I can't remember how to string the beads so that the rose appears. Do you know how??
You could use a big eye needle or use gum arabic glue, or anything else you've used successfully in the past to stiffen your pearl cotton, yes.
I'm not sure what your question is. Are you asking if you could use elastic to crochet with beads? I haven't ever seen that done, I'm not sure how the tension would be using something stretchy, it might be difficult.
Excellent tutorial thank you! What size crochet hook are you using? Does it matter if it is plastic or metal? I've heard from others thy have a preference. Thank you
no entiendo para nada tu idioma; pero tu video excelente créeme lo aprendi el tutorial me salió precioso mis felicitaciones soy de santa fe rep. argentina gracias teresita
Thank you, glad you enjoyed :)
Terecita Meister ola me podrías decir como. lo hiciste y con que hilo por favor gracias
Very good tutorial ! But can I make this like the Kumihimo ? I buy a book glasbeads crochet and want to make this on the kumihimo disk !
Yes spiral crochet and kumihimo look very similar. The finishing techniques vary a bit but the spiral result is the same.
You could also do 2 and 2 to give two wider spirals, or every other bead to give a thinner 2 color spiral. Feel free to experiment and see what happens!
I would start with size 6/0 beads and use the same colors that I used in the video. It is a lot easier to do if you can see clearly which color to use next.
Hi, thank you for the tutorial, it really helped me to understand!!! I have some doubt, though, if looking at a pattern, I would like to know if I want to make a necklace, the pattern is repeated until I have the length for it? I will really appreciate your answer. Thanks again. Greetings from Argentina!!
+Adelia boop It will really depend on the length of your necklace but you should be able to create it with the same technique shown in the video.
Seems this give a similar looks to kumihimo. But it seems to take more manual dexterity. Think I'll try kumihimo first since my hands are very arthritic.
How do you finish this bracelet please. Is there another tutorial on this
This looks more difficult than the one lady I just watched. Think I will go back. Thanks.
What would happen if you pass two beads each chain?
Can you do this with 11/0 seed beads and if so, what kind of thread would you need? I just find that this goes so much faster than tubular peyote and would love to use this technique as an alternative to the peyote rainbow bracelet that I've been working on.
Yes, you can do this with 11/0 seed beads and a good thread choice would be a micro macrame S-lon cord. Here is a link: www.beadaholique.com/c-65364-super-lon-micro.aspx and here is a project that uses 11/0 seed beads and the thread: www.beadaholique.com/t-ba-project-B7032.aspx
Thank-You so very much!!!!!
Beadaholique
Thanks a Lot for sharing to make this bracelet ! U r a Wonderful Teacher!.Till now I was searching for various videos to learn this Spiral beaded bracelet. Ur way of teaching has made it very easy for me make this successful !
Thank u once again. By the way can u tell me with which other beads can I make this bracelet?Kindly reply.Bye !.

I haven't tried that, but I do think it could make your work stiff. You really hardly see the string through the beads once it's complete.
beautiful,thank you for the video,can i use the 11/o seed beads
Yes, you can use most different size beads. Smaller beads will need a smaller thread (you might want to try Micro S-Lon for 11/0s) and a smaller crochet hook, and will give you a thinner cord.
Beadaholique
thank you very much..
Thank you for sharing this tutorial. BTW - I LOVE the gold and teal bracelet SO MUCH! Is there a pattern or kit available for that anywhere?
Glad you like it :) We never sold that one as a kit but we've got a project page with written instructions for it here: www.beadaholique.com/t-ba-project-B668.aspx
+Beadaholique Thanks!
nice ....
Hi do you have a video showing how to do the invisible join in a bead crochet rope? Thank you for your reply Patricia
Hi! We do not have a video on that just yet but it's a good suggestion and I can add it to our request list. Currently this is the closest video I have to help finish the ends (but it's not an invisible join) beadaholique.com/products/how-to-finish-beaded-crochet-rope-ends-and-attach-a-clasp
Thank you so very much for answering and explaining. Look forward to your video on the invisible join. Also thank you for the video with the clasp endings that you advised too.Thank you for your kindness. Patricia
Yes, thank you for this very clear tutorial. I do have a question: Unless you're doing a bracelet in all one color, do your color choices have to be in groups of 4 in order to show the spiral pattern? If not, are there other numbers of multiples that work?
I saw another tutorial that did 6 beads. It was a clear instructional video ad well.
What size hook are you using? It looks like it could be anywhere between 1.5 mm and 2 mm
Hi! It is a Nickel Plated Steel Crochet Hook - Size 6 (1.60mm)
Have you ever used a square cut or hex seed bead? Just curious if they would work. Thanks.
We have not tried that but it sounds like it should work. Let us know how it goes.
I was hoping you could answer a question for me. I've been getting in to beading and crochet and I was wondering if I should wax my crochet thread? I was told that if my work is crocheted with nylon or cotton thread, there is the possibility of them rotting should they get wet. I am an anxiety hand washer, so I wash my hands dozens of time a day. This could be a problem for my bracelets lol.
Waxing thread has a few benefits. Not only will it help repel water but it will tame the thread, making it less prone to tangling while you're working with it. That said, there are a few trade-offs. For something like a crocheted bracelet you'll notice that it not only changes the texture of it on your wrist, but the way it drapes as well. When you add wax you're adding stiffness. Since you wash your hands a lot I think it's worth experimenting with, especially with cotton thread. Nylon has better water resistance and isn't as prone to mildew.
Thank you for sharing this video.
what's the nr of you seed bead
You juse???
You forgotten to tell
Or els a great video
Czech Seed Beads 6/0
Wow
What size beads and hook are you using for this demo?
We're using 6/0 Czech glass seed beads and a size 6 crochet hook
Hi, this is a great video.. easy to understand! Can't wait to try this!! Thanks for posting the video. I wanted to a ask you a question. I have seen bracelets like these without the clasps. The bracelet is a whole piece. Do you make those too? And is there a video for it?
Hi! We do have a video coming soon on how to do a continuous spiral crochet bangle - stay tuned!
So do you connect the two ends of the bracelet the same way? By stitching the thread back through the beads? I was looking to make it a whole bracelet so you can just roll it over your wrist.
Renee Bullard Essentially yes but you have to be careful about which point you join the beads so that they look like a continuous spiral.
Ok, gotcha! Thanks so much!!
great video, easy to follow. A couple of questions regarding supplies. What size bead and what size hook did you use? Also, does the cord come in different sizes? If so what size did you use? Thank you
The hook is Size 6 and the beads are 6-0 Czech Seed Beads. We currently only sell one size of Pearl Cotton Thread. You can get the supplies featured in our videos on Beadaholique . com's website. The links for the supplies in this video are located in the video description underneath this video.
Beadaholique What size is the yarn?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I will stick with my Kumihimo wheel. Nice video though. 😊
We prefer kumi to get this style of beaded braid as well, the end result is close enough that I'd call them identical. You never can tell what people will like though, we see spiral crochet fans making similar comments our kumi videos now and then
What size superlon would work in this bracelet? You mention it but don’t list it in the supplies needed. Thank you.
Size 18 super-lon is the perfect size for working with almost any seed bead: beadaholique.com/products/beadsmith-super-lon-s-lon-cord-size-18-twisted-nylon-white-77-yard-spool
hi what size needle are u using
+precious23 Size 6 is a good size for working with beads
What type of cord or thread are you using and Where can I buy it???

Thanks Amrita!
how many beads r required for one bracelet?
The finished bracelet we show in this video is about 6.5 inches of beadwork. For a four color bracelet of that size you'll want at least 260 beads, that's 65 beads of each color.
Do you have to have 4 colors of beads?
4 colors are not necessary, but we suggested 4 as the colors are easy to keep track of when you're crocheting. Thanks for watching!
My question is this, do you put all the beads on when you start? and what happens if you dont add enough? How do you add them on later? as you are making the spiral? You didnt show that =(
Your beads must be preloaded onto your stringing materials. If you are using 6/0 seed beads, you will use about 40 beads per inch. The only way to add more beads later on is by adding them from the other end of the cord. You can potentially cut a little more cord than you need to add the beads on the other end. Thanks for watching!
what is the name or type of the thread?
It's called pearl cotton (Or sometimes perlé cotton), you can see it here: www.beadaholique.com/pearl-cotton-cord-size-8-light-ecru-off-white-85-yard-bobbin.html
Eslon?
If you are looking for Super Lon cord, you can find some here:

Thanks for watching!
Do you sell bead Crochet kits?
We have a few crochet beading projects here: www.beadaholique.com/catalogsearch/result/?type=all&q=crochet
Thanks for watching!
How abt an elastic?
Like
I finally got it! I have bought size 9/0 beads. What size yarn/string should I use? If you can tell me which size hook (European) I should use I can figure it out 😍
I recommend using a micro S-lon with a size US 6 which is 1.6mm.
Wonderful Work! I have a Favor to ask you. Could you please do this tutorial with pony beads? The very same way you did this video with the acception, could you please use 6 beads grouped together? To have a bigger hole. Could it also be possible to make it close all the way, please show us how do you make a perfect ring. Where the beads are meeting at both ends and closing it. Bracelets made out of pony beads would be such fun for grandkids. Could you please do this I would so appreciate it. So to recap what I was saying could you do your tutorial using a group of six pony beads at a time, like how you're using your group of four and have it close all the way showing us how you close it that's making a perfect ring, a pullover bracelet. I love how patiently and slowly you did your tutorial, could you do that with the pony beads? Thank you and God bless you!!! Oh I forgot what size string would you be using for the Pony beads if you do choose to do this?
Hi, unfortunately we're only able to do videos using the beads we carry at the moment and we don't stock pony beads. I don't think we have anything quite that large. Sorry to disappoint.
@@beadaholiqueThankyou for your quick response!!! I understand. What about using the largest beads you have and making a crochet beaded round bracelet where it closes all the way and showing us how to close it. I really appreciate how you do it slowly so we can understand thankyou so much for that!!! Oops Spiral Crochet Beaded Bracelet.
I'll suggest that to our lead designer. She's got a lot of videos she's working on right now but we do always like to take suggestions when we can. Thanks for watching, and thanks for the video idea!
@@beadaholique Thankyou and God Bless You All!!!
