    Bead crochet rope designer: common questions

    What does the Bead Crochet Rope Designer do?

    It lets you design a tubular bead crochet rope in your browser. Choose how many beads go around, paint a repeat by hand or generate a motif, check it on a 3D simulated rope, then get bead counts, a stringing list in order, and step-by-step crochet instructions.

    How do I string beads for bead crochet?

    Beads are strung in the exact order they will be crocheted, starting with the first round. The designer produces that stringing list for your pattern and can walk you through it one bead at a time, so you can string without counting by hand.

    How many beads do I need for a bead crochet rope?

    It depends on the beads around, the bead size and the finished length. Enter your length and rounds per inch, and the designer counts beads per color for the finished rope plus about 5% spare, with approximate gram weights.

    Can I save and export my bead crochet patterns?

    Yes. Save designs to My patterns in your browser, and export the chart as an image, the instructions as text, or the whole design as a file you can import later.

    Is the bead crochet designer free?

    Yes. It runs free in any modern web browser on a computer, tablet or phone, with no account needed.
