Advice on choosing crochet.

The size of the crochet hook to use is chosen based on the brand of the crochet hook, the color or size of the thread, the type of work you want to do, but above all it can vary based on the tension that each of us puts into the work we do. is accomplishing. Remember to work the beads with soft (not tight) chain. If while working on the project you notice that the crochet hook is not picking up the thread well, we recommend going up the crochet hook size. Crochet hook recommended from 1.50mm and above.

 Tips for inserting beads.

The choice of material to insert into the wire must be made based on its diameter. For dragon metal jewel yarn choose pearls, resins, crystals, glass or beads with a hole of at least 0.8 mm (for example crystals of 2.5 mm and more).

To facilitate the insertion of the beads, it is advisable to moisten the first 10cm of the thread with attack type glue, let it dry and proceed with the insertion of the beads. For inserting a large amount of crystals into the strand, please slide the beads carefully. Once the project is finished, stop the work with glue such as hasulith, claw or fabric glue.
