broomstick lace bracelet

this bracelet looks more difficult than it really is. I came in contact with this pattern through a Ravelry download pattern named "curry cuff" by Karen Borrel, which is a variation of the pattern a YouTube video shows. The difference between the too patterns is that you only do single crochet in the Ravelry and double crochet in the YouTube. I did the one after the Ravelry variation.

Beaded bracelet

This bracelet is made without pattern as a test, but I’ll show you how I did.

Before I started I threaded on beads with colour 4 green (1 read, 9 green)x7 it is always beast to thread on more beads than necessary since you never know what ideas that my come during the work and you can’t put on more beads after you have started.

I chained 55 stitches but make the length after your own wrist, but make sure you do odd numbers.

1: in both ends I made three sc without any beads to make it easier to make some sort of locking device.

2: then I crocheted on 1 bead and did 1 sc, this was repeated until the length was appropriate for my wrist and finished with 3 sc after the last bead. Then one chain stitch and turn the work.  

To crochet on a bead I pushed one bead as close to my work as possible and did a slip stitch this securing the bead. By doing this the bead will appear on the opposite side of the work.

3: one single row of single crochet and end with one chain stitch and turn the work.

4:  I repeated number 2 and 3 two times as to get three rows of beads.

5: crochet one sc in the last stitch and make one more continuing round the work, then I chained 7 stitches (adjust this to your button) and skipped doing one sc, than I continued to do single crochet on the other side, leaving a thread to fasten the button with.
