Retro Ropes!
My latest bead crochet kit series
I was so impressed with the
ropes I created with the "retro stitch" that I scoured the fiber world for new
crochet threads.
The Retro kits come in all sizes
of seed beads (15/0, 11/0, 8/0 & 6/0). You can create ropes with solid
beads, Beadwrangler seed bead mix, or clear crystal beads using metallic
threads or variegated threads.

Now you can learn bead crochet from the Beadwrangler.
Learn Bead Crochet from Scratch!
A personal workshop with the Beadwrangler
Click
here for complete information about the bead crochet
package I have been working on for the last several months. I start you with big,
thick thread and no beads!. Then we work through big thread with big beads, medium
thread with medium beads and finally thin thread with little beads - the same beads and
thread you would use to make all those great looking bead crochet ropes, bags,
necklaces and lariats. When you finish this workshop, you will be a pro!

Here's one email I have received regarding my
"Learn from Scratch! Workshop".
Dear Lydia-
Fifteen years ago, my husband and I took a trip to Hawaii.
The flight from Chicago to Hawaii was long and somewhat
anxiety-producing due to the long flight over the ocean. When we
reached the west coast the captain pointed out the Golden Gate
Bridge, then we were asked to close our blinds so
that those who had purchased the movie could see
it in comfort. We were served beverages, a meal,
watched the movie, and before we knew it we were almost to our
designation. We had soared over the ocean almost without thinking
about it. We
successfully arrived at our designation and achieved our goal.
Taking your bead crochet course provided me with a similar experience
of reaching my goal (beaded crochet ropes) while
hardly realizing how quickly and fearlessly I was
reaching my destination. The psychology you used
and the skill-building you encouraged in your lessons was
fabulous. I took a beaded rope crochet course at my local bead store
and was extremely frustrated. I then spent 20 plus anxious,
stressful hours trying to learn on my own from the
instructions provided with the class. I was
unable to get more than 2 "rows" done before producing an
indistinguishably shaped mass of beads and thread. What a mess!
Thanks to you, I just finished a 7" long rope 10
beads around, and it looks great! Thank you,
THANK YOU! Your course was fun, easy to follow,
allowed me small successes along the way, built my confidence, and
TAUGHT me to bead crochet. I am successful and so happy to have
found your website and purchased your course.
Sincerely,
Pam
New Beading Kit
My newest beading kit, Floral Treasures, is now available. I
introduced this kit at Bead Expo 2001 in Miami and it was a tremendous hit. It took
me awhile to put the webpage together that provides all the information about this new
kit. If you would like to take a look, here is a link straight to the Floral
Treasures kit page at the Beadwrangler Mall -

Treasures.
