It’s been so long since I blogged that I’ve almost forgotten how!
The crochet-a-long for January in the Crochet Jewelry of the Month Group on Ravelry is Turkish Loop Bead Crochet. They provided a video on doing the 3-loop beaded method as well as some tutorials on the 3-loop and the 2-loop methods.
It’s an interesting stitch and I like learning something new. So this is the project that I ended up making. I did the 3-loop method, used size 10 crochet cotton, a size 8 steel crochet hook, twisted bugle beads (about 1/2″ in size) and size 8 seed beads.
This photo shows the bracelet and one of the bugle beads that I used.

If you like combining beads with your crochet then give this a try. There are all kinds of suggestions for bead combinations.
That’s really pretty!
Yay! Great to see you blogging again!
