Tiffany Bracelet

How’s it going? I’m well, having some fun with crochet thread again. Did you like last week’s earrings, the Carries, or perhaps the Carly Headband update? I really like working with thread, there’s a lot you can do with it and it looks so gorgeous. So this week I wanted to try to marry two of my current crochet obsessions, crochet thread and tapestry designs. I didn’t want to get too wild with it, so I just did some fun little triangles. I hope you get this design a try.

Materials:

• 2.25 mm steel  crochet hook
• Size 10 crochet thread
  • I used Aunt Lydia‘s
  • At least 2 colors (I used 4 different colors)
• Needle to weave in your ends
• 1 Button

Gauge:

• 14 scs x 15 rows = 1.5″ x 1.5″

Terms/ stitches used:

• Ch: chain
• Slip st: slip stitch
• St: stitch
• Sc: single crochet

Notes:

• This pattern is worked in parts, the base of the bracelet, rows on the ends and then a border. At the end you top it off with a button.
• I usually work over yarn when I’m graphing but for this design I didn’t. You can do whatever you feel comfortable with.
• This pattern is worked in rows, back  and forth, with a turn at the beginning or end.
• The ch 1 at the beginning of the row does not count as a stitch
• The color changes below are not specified other than “color A, color B.”

Finished measurements:

• Height: just over 1.5″
• Width: 7″

Finishing:
One you’ve got all your ends woven in and you’re bracelet is all pretty, you just need to attach your button. Make sure the scs from row 6 are facing up, attach a button to the end of the bracelet opposite the ch-10 space. I like to weave the thread through the button holes a few times to make sure the button is super secure. The ch-10 space wraps around the button and that’s how you keep the bracelet on your hand.

Tada! I hope you like the new design and have fun with it.
