Instructions


  1. 1

    Fold wire in half to create one 1-yd length of wire that is
    double-thick.

  2. 2

    Thread beads onto the double-thick wire in the following
    pattern: 1 gemstone, *1 pearl, 1 gemstone, 2 pearls, 1 gemstone;
    repeat from *.

  3. 3

    Carefully make a slipknot with the wire, leaving a 3-inch
    tail. Tighten the slipknot onto your crochet hook.

  4. 4

    Ch 3.

  5. 5

    Slide 1 bead up to the crochet hook and ch over it. The pearl should now be “caught” in the ch stitch. This is called a beaded ch stitch.

  6. 6

    Work 3 non-beaded ch stitches.

  7. 7

    Repeat Steps 6 & 7 until all beads are incorporated. Finish
    off, leaving a 3-inch tail.

  8. 8

    Grasp the bracelet at either end and pull firmly in opposite
    directions to flatten the wire stitches. This will give the
    bracelet a neater appearance.

  9. 9

    Using the needle nose pliers, thread the beg 3-inch tail
    through the T-piece of the toggle clasp, sliding the T-piece up to the first chain stitch. Wrap the tail around the base of the T-piece at least 3 times to secure it into place. Trim the
    excess with wire cutters. Repeat for ending 3-inch tail and O-piece.
