Sample and Project by Emily Miller

More fun with bead crochet! The response to the initial Bits & Pieces samples by our customers and Facebook LIVE audience was amazing, so we asked Emily to share some new colorways. Bouquet is a summery blend of yellow-greens and bits of sparkly gold, just like you would see if you walked out your back door on a July morning.

Emily uses a .90 Crochet Hook and Micro C-Lon to create a long, almost endless design with an assortment of beads in all kinds of shapes and finishes.

Project Map


As a variation from the original samples, Emily beaded the loop for the button, rather than crochet it. She also added a single stitch between the larger size 6/0 beads, which allows a bit more of the thread color to become a design element. There are more than enough materials to make this as long as you like. Be sure to factor the button and loop lengths into your desired, finished length. Have fun with it and bead creative!
