Crochet Wire Jewelry

I came across this Crochet Me pattern a while back and decided it would make an easy, fast Mother’s Day gift to add to the basket.

The pattern itself was pretty basic, however I did change it a bit. I used a smaller gauge wire (32) than what they suggested, and added a few more beads. The pattern instructs you to crochet a bit with the wire and beads, then string it onto a string of sorts to make into a necklace. I decided instead to string it onto a bit of bracelet sized memory wire to turn it into a bracelet. This was the first time I had ever done bead crochet…and I think I may have found a new obsession!
