DIY Crocheted Bracelet Supplies
step 1
Measure your wrist and cut your chain by opening one of the links in the chain.
I recommend making your chain shorter than you normally would. This bracelet looks best a little snug, you don’t want it to dangle too much.
Remember that your jump rings and closure will add an extra inch to your bracelet.
step 2
Add your jump rings and your closure.
Put one jump ring on the side with the circle closure and two jump rings on the side with the bar.DIY Crocheted Bracelet Chain
step 3
You’re ready to crochet.
I used 6 strands of embroidery floss together to get the look I wanted.
Make your loop to start your crochet, then continue single crocheting in each link down one side of your bracelet.
When you are finished, pull your yarn through and knot it. Leave a tail.
step 4
Repeat step 3 down the other side of your chain.DIY Crocheted Bracelet Crochet
step 5
Add a drop of fabric glue to each end knot, this will make sure they don’t come loose.
Cut your loose threads to about one inch and pull the strands apart to make them look like tassels.DIY Crocheted Bracelet Finished
I love white in the fall and winter and this bracelet is the perfect complement to most any outfit in white and gold. I was inspired to make this bracelet by a photo shoot from the August issue of Town and Country magazine.DIY Crocheted Bracelet Inspiration
You can stack this bracelet with other gold bracelets or mix it up with multiple colors and metals.
