Easy Beading Pattern - Crochet Bead Bracelet

Beading Pattern - Crochet Bead Bracelet

Want to make you own bead jewelry? Well, here is a  beading pattern. This has got to be the easiest and most beautiful bead bracelet you can make.

You can customize this bead pattern to suit your style and color choice. Want a necklace instead? Just double the length of the wire.

You will need:

Crochet hook

 Three lengths of 28 or 32 gauge gold or silver wire cut to 125cm (50inches)

Bead stopper to hold all those beads onto you thread.

Any beads of your choice. Swarovski Crystals Beads would look great! A good idea is to mix the size and have different shades of the one color.

Thread the beads onto the thread in a pattern you want. Small beads either side of bigger beads. Use seeds beads either side of your main beads.

Don't forget to put that bead stopper on the end.

Using the crochet hook, do a few chain stitches.

Push the first bead down the thread passed the crochet hook.

Do one chain stitch.

Push the next bead down the thread and add another chain stitch.

Continues with one bead one chain until you use all the beads.

Pull the end of the wire through the last stitch to make a knot.

Make 3 lengths of your pattern at the length to suit you. Join the 3 lengths of beads into a loop and add a clasp at each end. You can let the 3 loops hang down separately or you can twist them together for a great twisted effect.

For  a lighter bracelet or necklace, with the beads spaced out, add more chain stitches between the beads.

For a heavy beaded look add a group of beads then one chain stitch, then another group of beads.

 
The beads I used were:

45 blue seed beads

12 small clear crystal beads

8 large blue crystal beads

The pattern I used in my bracelet were:  3 seed beads, I small clear crystal bead, 2 seed beads, 1 large crystal bead, 2 seed beads, 1 small crystal bead,  3 seed bead.

Now you have your beaded bracelet or necklace.
