What is the difference between Bead Crochet and Beaded Crochet?
Bead crochet puts the bead smack in the middle of the crochet stitch. It can’t slip away or to the back of the work. One advantage to working bead crochet is that the bead sits up straight which makes this method preferable for any geometric patterns you make. An example of bead crochet is our own Gertrude Lawrence. Beaded crochet slides the bead between the crochet stitches, which is preferable if you are attempting a variety of stitches or chains. In beaded crochet, first you make the crochet stitch, then slide the bead up to it so the bead sits between the crochet stitches.
