1. To complete this bracelet, you will need seed beads in blue or color of choice, 6mm acrylic faceted round beads- matching the seed beads color, small crochet hook, 100+ cm of 3mm silver wire, clamp on bead tips and a silver screw fastener.
|
|
|
2. Take your crochet hook and form a loop as if you would be making a chain stitch.
|
|
|
3. Wrap the wire around the hook and pull the next loop through the first one.
|
|
|
4. Make 2 more loops.
|
|
|
5. Slide one of the 6mm faceted beads onto the long end of the wire and let the bead reach the loops.
|
|
|
6. Crochet another loop to secure this bead in place. Crochet one more loop.
|
|
|
7. Add 3 seed beads and slide them to the loop. Crochet again a loop to secure and then another loop.
|
|
|
8. Add again a large round faceted bead and repeat starting with step 6 through 8...
|
|
|
9. ...until the desired length is achieved.
|
|
|
10. To finish off, after the last bead is done, chain 2 loops and pull one through to knot it so it does not open again. Cut away the rest of the wire. Bend these loops together in a small ball and cover with a clamp on bead tip. Add the fastener to the bead tip by slightly opening the loop formed on the fastener and inserting it on the bead tip. Use pliers to close the loop again. Do this to both sides.
