Bead Stitch Bracelet and Ring

Depending on your dress code, this crochet bracelet and ring set can be a lot of fun, especially for young girls. You don’t need much yarn or time, which means this is the perfect idea for a last-minute gift idea. Make it as a birthday gift, a stocking stuffer, or as a fun surprise any day of the year.

There are a lot of variations that you can do with only a small amount of leftovers, so if you crochet with thread a lot, this pattern is the perfect solution to using up those odds and ends.

The Yarn

I worked this up in both a size three thread and a worsted weight yarn. Both worked, however, I much prefer the thread as it gives you more details while keeping things narrow.

The Stitch Pattern

The ring is worked in rounds, but the bracelet can be crocheted up in rounds or in rows. If working it in rows you’ll need a clasp or another type of closure. Otherwise, you can just slip it onto the wrist.

As for the stitch, I used bead stitch, which is basically an extension of the single crochet in one stitch and then the regular single crochet in the next. You get a pretty beaded texture, which makes it ideal for making jewelry.
