How to Crochet a Decorative Bead Cover
Introduction
This guide will help you create a beautiful decorative bead cover using colorful yarn and elementary crochet techniques.
Materials Needed
- Yarn 1 (color A)
- Yarn 2 (color B)
- Crochet Hook
- Bead for sizing
Starting the Crochet
Make 4 chain stitches with yarn 1, then circle them into a ring of single crochets.
Take out the crochet hook to secure the ring.Creating the Base
Make 2 stitches from the obtained ring using yarn 2 as single crochets. Continue these actions, creating 2 single crochets in each stitch, while crocheting through the front loops.
Color Change Technique
Change the color of the yarn when you reach the stitch of yarn 1, and continue working based on the previous scheme. This will create a nice color transition in your bead cover.
Working to the Desired Diameter
Crochet until you reach the needed diameter and match it with your selected bead for the cover.
Making Decreases
Start to make decreases from the next row. Here's the pattern:
- Make 3 crochets, skip 1 crochet.
- In the next row, make 2 crochets and skip 1.
- Then, make 1 crochet and skip 1.
Finishing Touches
In the end, draw 1 stitch into another one, cut the yarn, draw through the remaining stitches, and tighten securely. Fasten off and weave in the ends to complete your decorative bead cover.
