  Step 1

  Start by chaining three chains. Join with a slip stitch with the last chain from hook to make a ring.

  Row 1: 6 sc in ring
  Row 2: 2 sc in each stitch for 12 stitches

  Step 2

  Row 3: 1 sc in one stitch, 2 sc in the next; repeat until you get 18 st.
  Rows 4 - 5: sc around for 18 st.

  Step 3

  End of row 5: (You may stuff it here)

  Row 6: 1 sc, sc2tog for 18 st.
  Row 7 - end: sc2tog until end.
  Tie the end, thread an embroidery needle and hide the tail inside the bead.

  You are done!

  Step 5

  Tips: For the blue bead I used a six-stranded yarn and a 3 mm hook. The red bead from the intro picture is made by a thinner yarn and a 1.9 mm hook. You can see the difference in size. Hence, by combining different yarn and hooks you can have beads in different sizes.
  Also, if you want to make big(ger) beads, just repeat row 4 until you achieve the desired size.

  As you can see, I used filling for my beads, but you can use this pattern for wooden (plastic) beads too, only you have to insert it earlier and again employ the row 4 instructions.
