You Need
- worsted weight yarn
- 4.5mm crochet hook
- fingering yarn (for flower)
- 2.5mm crochet hook
- button (approximately .8 inches / 21mm)
Cuff:
These are USA crochet terms. Using the worsted weight yarn and 4.5mm crochet hook, Ch 7.
I start each row with a starting double crochet st (see video) but you can also chain 2. For brevity I will put SDCS.
R1: sdcs, 6 dc (7sts)
R2: sdcs, ch 1, 1dc, ch 1, 1 dc, ch1, 1 dc (the ch1 count as a st, so skip a dc in the row below)
R3: sdcs, 6 dc. (one dc in the ch1 space, then one in the top of the previous round dc)
Repeat R2-3 until bracelet wraps around arm. For size 7-years old, I repeated it 5 more times. For a size medium adult, repeat 6 more times. It's very stretchy! You can stop on the end of row 2 as well for a smaller size.
When done, single crochet around the bracelet doing two single crochet stitches in each corner. I did two sc stitches per DC st on the side and 7 across the top and bottom. sl st into the first sc and ch1, break yarn leaving a long tail to sew on the button if you wish.
Flower:
Using fingering yarn and a 2.5mm crochet hook, do 16 dc into a magic loop. sl st into the first dc.
R1: ch 6, and single crochet into the front post of the first DC. X3
repeat *ch 6, sc into front post of the next DC* three times in each DC around.
Then your flower is done, and all that is left is to sew the flower on and the button, and wear. My daughter loves it!
