And The Bead Goes On

 Starting my fourth red, white & blue bead crochet rope.  I've created bead crochet patterns using DB-Bead software for years, but never did anything with them.  Now, happily, I see DB-Bead patterns all over the internet.  I've collected internet patterns from 5 around (click HERE) to 35 around and pinned them to my Pinterest board (click HERE).  Now, I am enjoying beading some of those old patterns and collecting new ones.

What is your favorite size for a bracelet? I am not at all familiar with the different sizes and how little or big they are. By the way I do follow you on Pinterest.

Hi Maria, My favorite size is 6 beads around using a size 8 seed bead. If you have a small wrist, you would crochet in the round until you have about 6" and then measure it around your wrist. Medium would be about 7-1/2" and Large about 8-1/2 - 9". Then join. I hope this has helped a little. You can email me at
