Lots of projects
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I ordered this book for myself after seeing my friend's copy. It has a lot of different variations on the crochet rope, including multiple strand ropes. I knew how to crochet a rope, but this book gives me a lot of ideas on using different beads to vary the look of a rope.
If you get one book on bead crochet - this is the one to get!

I have bought several books on bead crochet, and this one is far superior to the others I have. Not only are there excellent photographs, there are accompanying illustrations that really show the steps. There are dozens of beautiful designs - with instructions on HOW to design your own. For me, it was the big bead crochet mystery solved. Now I am making bead crochet jewelry like there is no tomorrow, all thanks to this book.
Best crochet bead book around!

This is the best crochet bead book I've come across. I used it as a beginner's book for self-teaching. I do have experience with crocheting, but it is minimal. The directions for making the corded bracelets are very easy to understand. I also purchased a DVD made by this author. It was also very helpful. The only thing wrong with the DVD was that the selections wouldn't highlight, so I had to guess which selection I was clicking on... but since I'm not reviewing the video, it won't change the five stars I've given to this book. Happy crochet beading!

I love this book. I've been teaching bead rope crochet for 3 years. This the best resource book I've seen. It has both simple and complex ideas but also some very advanced techniques that I've not seen elsewhere and believe me I have just about everything.
