Note: This pattern uses US crochet terminology. UK/Commonwealth terms: sc = dc, hdc = htr, dc = tr, tr = dtr.
Materials and Tools Required
Since this project is very delicate, using the correct yarn and hook weight is crucial to achieving a neat, dainty finish.
- Yarn: Lace weight (Category 0) or Fingering weight (Category 1) mercerized cotton yarn. Cotton is preferred because it offers excellent stitch definition and does not stretch out of shape. You will need a main color for the flower petals (e.g., cream, pink, or light blue) and yellow or gold for the flower centers.
- Crochet Hook: 1.5 mm or 1.75 mm hook. A smaller hook is necessary to keep the flowers tiny and detailed.
- Fastener: A metal lobster clasp, jump rings, or simply long yarn tails to tie the bracelet around the wrist.
- Tapestry Needle: A fine needle for weaving in the small ends.
- Scissors: For cutting yarn.
- Fabric stiffener (Optional): To spray on the finished bracelet to help it retain its flat shape.
Abbreviations & Stitches Used
- MR: Magic Ring
- ch: Chain
- sl st: Slip stitch
- sc: Single crochet
- hdc: Half double crochet
- dc: Double crochet
- st(s): Stitch(es)
Step-by-Step Pattern
This bracelet is worked in one continuous piece by crocheting a series of connected flowers. This minimizes the number of yarn tails to weave in later!
Part 1: The First Flower
Step 1: Start by leaving a 15 cm (6 inch) tail for attaching the clasp later. Chain 5. Join with a sl st to the first chain to form a small ring.
Step 2 (Petal 1): Chain 2. Make 2 dc into the ring. Chain 2, sl st into the ring.
Step 3 (Petals 2 & 3): Repeat Step 2 two more times to complete three petals of the first flower. Do not finish the remaining petals yet; we will complete them on the return pass.
Part 2: Connecting the Flowers
Step 1: Chain 6. Slip stitch in the 5th chain from the hook to form the ring for the second flower.
Step 2: Work under the ring: Chain 2, make 2 dc in the ring, chain 2, sl st in the ring (first petal of the second flower).
Step 3: Repeat Step 2 two more times to make the second and third petals of the second flower.
Step 4: Repeat the connection steps until your bracelet reaches your desired length (typically 14-16 cm, which is about 6 to 8 flowers depending on your tension and yarn size). Leave about 1.5 cm of space for the clasp.
Part 3: The Return Pass (Completing the Flowers)
Once you reach the final flower and have completed its 3rd petal, work the 4th and 5th petals into the final ring to complete that flower.
Step 1: Make 2 more petals into the final ring: *[Chain 2, 2 dc, chain 2, sl st in the ring]*. Repeat once.
Step 2: Slip stitch along the connecting chain space to reach the previous flower ring.
Step 3: Work 2 petals into the previous flower ring to complete it. Repeat this process all the way back to the very first flower.
Step 4: Complete the 4th and 5th petals of the first flower. Join with a sl st to the first stitch. Fasten off, leaving a 15 cm tail.
Assembly and Adding the Clasp
Now, let’s turn our crochet chain into a wearable piece of jewelry.
- Using the tapestry needle, thread one of the yarn tails through a jump ring connected to a lobster clasp. Sew securely through the edge of the first flower and weave in the end on the back of the petals.
- On the other end of the bracelet, thread the other yarn tail through a large jump ring (which the lobster clasp will hook into). Sew securely and weave in the end.
- To make the flowers look neat and prevent curling, lightly spray the bracelet with fabric stiffener or hairspray. Lay it flat on a clean surface, shape the petals, and let it dry completely.
- Optional: Using a needle and yellow thread, sew a small yellow bead or make a French knot in the center of each flower to represent the pollen.
Care Instructions
To keep your crochet bracelet clean and looking new, wash it by hand in cold water with a mild detergent. Do not wring or twist the delicate lace. Gently press out excess water with a dry towel and reshape the flowers. Lay flat to air dry. Avoid getting the metal clasps wet to prevent tarnishing.
