I am HUGE into rings right now. Probably because it is a difficult piece of jewlery for my 5 month old can destroy. I bought a ring the other day, when my mother saw it she said "hey i used to make rings just like that." Sure enough with a lot of searching, I found a few patterns on the internet. This is a really easy pattern, it just takes a little patience. I have found similar rings in stores for 8-16 bucks so you can't go wrong. GOOD LUCK!!!
YOU WILL NEED:
Elastic Thread
Beads of any size/color
Size 3 Crochet Hook
Abbreviations:
CH (chain)
SL ST (slip stitch)
SC (single crochet)
RND (round)Begin a ch 4, join with sl st to form a ring.
Rnd 1: * Slip a pearl or bead down, sc in ring, repeat from * 4 times (5 sc).
Rnd 2: This rnd is worked without pearls or beads; 2 sc in each sc of previous rnd (10 sc).
Rnd 3: * Slip pearl or bead, sc in sc, repeat from * around (10 sc).
Rnd 4: This rnd is worked without pearls or beads. Sc in each sc (10 sc).
Rnd 5: Repeat rnd 3.
Rnd 6: Repeat rnd 4.
Next: Ch 20, join with sl st in 5th sc on rnd 6 to form a ring. Turn, sl st in each of ch 20, fasten off. Pull ends through to wrong side of work and fasten securely. Tips: 1. dont panic about being perfect, the pattern is simple, but the work is pretty intricate. You miss a stitch here, or lose you spot there, it will still turn out. 2. As you can see I made the band thicker by simply doing triple crochet and securing the ends to the middle of the ring.  Print this Pattern
