About This Beaded Crochet Wire Bracelet
I’ve been loving the Wire Crochet Bangle I made a while back and wear it every chance I get! It looks just as nice with blue jeans as it does with a dressy outfit.
I wanted to try adding some beads to the original design for a little variation, and I love how it turned out!
This beaded version uses the same basic construction as my original wire bangle, with seed beads added to the beginning chain and each round of single crochet. The result is a flexible, textured bracelet with a little extra sparkle.
The bracelet is easy to customize for your wrist size. My finished bangle measures approximately 7½ in. (19 cm) in circumference, and I used 96 seed beads with a beginning chain of 33 stitches.

Pattern Notes
- This pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms.
- The bracelet is worked in joined rounds using fine jewelry wire instead of yarn.
- Beads are incorporated on the final yarn over of each stitch.
- Thread all your beads onto the wire before beginning.
- The number of beads needed depends on the size of your bracelet.
- My sample bracelet uses 96 beads and begins with a chain of 33 stitches.
- Work carefully with the wire to avoid sharp bends or kinks.
- When finishing, secure and tuck in all wire ends to prevent scratching.
Adding Beads to Your Stitches: To incorporate a bead, slide it up the wire so it rests next to your crochet hook just before completing the stitch.
For a chain stitch, move the bead up to the hook before making the chain.
For a single crochet, insert your hook into the next stitch and draw up a loop. Slide the bead up to the hook, yarn over, and pull through both loops on your hook.
Helpful Crochet Resources: Refer to my Crochet Abbreviations and U.S. to U.K. Crochet Conversion Chart as you work through the pattern.

Pattern Instructions
Preparing the Wire and Beads
Thread approximately 120 seed beads onto your jewelry wire before beginning. You may not need all the beads, depending on your bracelet size.
Incorporating one bead into each chain stitch as described above, make a chain slightly larger than the circumference of your wrist.
For reference, my bracelet began with 33 chains and measures approximately 7½ in. (19 cm) in circumference.
Join in the first chain to form a ring, taking care not to twist the chain.
Crocheting the Bracelet
Round 1: Ch 1, incorporating beads into each stitch as described above, work 1 sc in each ch around, join.
Round 2: Ch 1, again incorporating beads into each stitch, work 1 sc in each st around, join.
Finishing
Cut the wire and fasten off.
Weave the wire ends securely into the bracelet, then carefully fold or tuck the cut ends inward so they cannot poke or scratch your skin.
Check that all wire ends are secure before wearing your finished bracelet.

I love the look of this bracelet. But can you tell me what I’m doing wrong? When i make this it twists and curves and doesnt lay flat like yours at all. Help! I’ve tried several times now with the hopes of making several as gifts. I’ve never crocheted with wire before and I’m really struggling!
Hi Kim 🙂 Yes, the wire can definitely be hard to handle sometimes. The beauty of this project though is that it isn’t supposed to look like nice neat stitches.
