Instructions:

Be sure to knit entire bracelet very loosely. You will work entire bracelet in garter stitch.

1. Leave wire on the spool and thread about 100 beads on randomly.

2. Cast on 4 stitches, leaving a 6” tail at the beginning (you will use this tail to connect the clasp to the bracelet.)

3. Knit one row.

4. On next row, increase one on each end of row (you will now have 6 stitches).

5. Randomly add beads to next row, then knit a row without beads.

6. Continue this pattern for 6-7 inches (it will depend on your wrist size and clasp size.)

7. Decrease one on each end (you will now have 4 stitches).

8. Do not bind off. Cut a length of wire at the end and run this back through the 4 loops. Use this same wire to wire the clasp to the bracelet.
