Tips

How to count round

The two circles in the picture represent two round.

The obvious feature of the appearance is the raised circle.

How to count stitch

When we see a V shape, it represents a stitch.

After we finish crocheting each round, we need to confirm that the number of stitches in this round meets the crocheting requirements.

add chain stitch for every round

Before we start crocheting each round, we need to add a chain stitch to keep each row straight.

30 ch for bracelet

Crochet 30 chain stitch(ch) for bracelet.

Fold 30 lock stitches in half to make a hand-carrying ring.

If we feel it is not long enough, we can crochet as many stitches as you need.

glue the bracelet on the body

Hand-carrying ring sewing or glue on the top of fabric.

This construction must be done well from the beginning of crochet the former round, because it will be difficult to operate if the bracelet(hand-carrying ring) is fixed later.
