Want a cute crochet bracelet that screams fall vibes? This bell flower pattern gives you tiny dangling blooms on a simple vine band. Perfect for pumpkin spice season or anytime you want floral jewelry.
It’s small, it’s wearable, and it works up fast. Let’s dive in.
What Makes This Bracelet So Dang Cute?
Picture this: a thin olive-green cord wrapping around your wrist. Little white bell flowers dangle from it like tiny lanterns. Gold beads add just a touch of sparkle.
The autumn harvest feel comes from those warm, earthy tones. You’re not using bright summer colors here. Think muted greens, creamy whites, and touches of gold. It’s like wearing a piece of fall itself.
IMO, this bracelet hits that sweet spot between “I made this” and “wait, you MADE this?”
Materials You’ll Need Before You Start
Gather everything first. Trust me, hunting for supplies mid-project kills the mood.
Yarn and Thread
- Size 10 crochet cotton in olive green
- Size 10 crochet cotton in ivory or cream white
- Both should be fine lace weight for that delicate look
Hook
- 1.00 to 1.25 mm steel hook
- Yes, that’s tiny. Yes, your eyes will adjust.
Beads and Extras
- 6 to 8 small gold beads
- 2 larger gold beads for the tie ends
- Sewing needle thin enough to thread beads
Tools
- Yarn needle
- Small scissors
- Blocking mat and pins
- Fabric stiffener or diluted PVA glue (optional but helpful)
Understanding the Stitches (Don’t Skip This Part)
Before you start hooking, know your abbreviations. Here’s the quick cheat sheet:
- MR — magic ring
- ch — chain
- sl st — slip stitch
- sc — single crochet
- hdc — half double crochet
- inc — increase (2 sc in same stitch)
- FO — fasten off
- (…) x n — repeat what’s in brackets n times
This pattern uses US crochet terms. If you normally use UK terms, double-check your stitch conversions. A US single crochet is a UK double crochet. Don’t get tripped up.
Making the Main Bracelet Cord
This is your base. It’s simple but important.
Use olive green thread.
Chain 70 to 78. The exact number depends on your wrist size. Measure around your wrist and add a bit of slack.
Row 1: Starting in the second chain from hook, slip stitch in each chain across. This creates a slim, firm cord.
Fasten off and weave in your ends. Boom, bracelet base done.
Adding the Adjustable Tie Ends
Nobody wants a bracelet that doesn’t fit. These ties fix that.
Join olive green yarn to one end of your cord. Chain 22. Fasten off.
Do the same on the other end.
Now thread one larger gold bead onto each tie end. Knot securely below each bead. Trim the excess.
The beads look pretty AND keep the ties from slipping through your fingers.
Crocheting the Leaf Clusters
These little green clusters give the bracelet its botanical charm.
Make 4 or 5 clusters with olive green thread.
Each cluster has 5 small leaves worked from one center.
Chain 6. For the first leaf: starting in the second chain from hook, slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet, single crochet, slip stitch back to the base.
Chain 6 again for the next leaf. Repeat the same stitch sequence.
Keep going until you have 5 leaves radiating from the center.
Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Pull the leaves outward gently to form a star shape.
Creating the Flower Stem Drops
These stems connect your bell flowers to the bracelet. They create that lovely dangling effect.
Make 8 to 10 stems with olive green thread.
Chain 8 to 12. Change the length slightly for each one. This gives a natural, organic look instead of a rigid pattern.
Starting in the second chain from hook, slip stitch back along the chain.
Fasten off, leaving tails on both ends. One tail attaches to the bracelet, the other to a flower.
Crocheting the Bell Flowers
Here’s the star of the show. Those tiny bell shapes make this bracelet special.
Make 8 to 10 flowers with ivory white thread.
Round 1: 6 single crochet in magic ring. (6 stitches)
Round 2: (1 sc, inc) three times. (9 stitches)
Rounds 3 through 5: 9 sc. (9 stitches)
Round 6: (sl st, ch 2, 2 hdc in next stitch, ch 2, sl st in next stitch) three times.
Fasten off, leaving a long tail.
Gently shape each flower into a tiny bell. If you want them to hold their shape better, block them or use a little fabric stiffener. Let them dry completely before assembly.
Optional: Adding Tiny Flower Centers
Want a little something extra inside those bells? Add a tiny knot stitch with pale yellow or white sewing thread.
Keep it very small. You don’t want to close up the bell shape. Just a hint of a center.
Putting It All Together
Now comes the fun part. Assembly time.
Step 1: Block or lightly stiffen your leaf clusters and bell flowers. Let them dry completely before adding beads. The stiffener can discolor beads, so keep them away until everything’s dry.
Step 2: Lay your bracelet cord flat. Mark 4 or 5 evenly spaced points for the leaf clusters.
Step 3: Sew each leaf cluster onto the bracelet cord at your marked points. Use those long tails you left.
Step 4: Attach flower stems to the bracelet near each leaf cluster. Then attach a bell flower to the other end of each stem.
Step 5: Space your flowers evenly. You want a balanced look, not a clump on one side.
Step 6: Add small gold beads between flower sections if you want extra sparkle.
Tips for Best Results
Keep tension consistent. Tiny stitches show every wobble.
Use a stitch marker. It helps track rounds in the flowers.
Don’t skip blocking. It makes the flowers and leaves look polished instead of squished.
Test the fit. Before you sew everything down, wrap the cord around your wrist. Make sure it’s comfortable.
Make extra flowers. You might lose one. Or decide you want more. Having spares saves time.
