Things You'll Need:
- Beads
- Yarn needle
- Crochet hook
- Scissors
-
Step 1
String beads onto crochet thread using a collapsible needle (the eye of the needle collapses to let the bead pass over it onto the thread. Make each length of fringe twice as long as you want because you will fold each of them in half. Leave a little room so the lengths can be folded easily.
-
Step 2
Run the thread back through the beads on each end and knot them securely so the beads won't slip off.
-
Step 3
Begin a crochet chain. Every few stitches, pick up a length of fringe, fold it in half, and use the crochet hook to attach it to the chain. Make sure you add the fringe at even intervals. You may have to experiment with different sizes of hooks to make the chain tight enough to hold the fringe.
-
Step 4
Turn and work a row of single crochet stitches. Tie off and attach the fringe to your piece.
-
Step 1
Begin by threading the number of beads you need onto the yarn. Remember that each loop of fringe will be folded in half, so you need twice as many beads for the length of fringe you want.
-
Step 2
Work a row of single crochet. At even intervals, pull up the number of beads you need for the fringe, then yarn over and complete the next single crochet. You will have left behind a loop of beaded fringe.
-
Step 3
If you can't string all your beads at once, string as many as you can work with, then tie off the yarn when you run out of beads. String more beads, attach the yarn and continue working.
-
Step 4
Tie off the yarn at the end of the row or work a row of slip stitches backwards along the row to give a more finished look.
