Snake Bracelet

A new book came that I had ordered! The Bead Crochet Snakes. I loved the pics on the Net, so I couldn't resist:-)

The main principle is that you thread a cotton this way with threading on a usual thread first. Then you crochet and slide a bead to the piece in some state of progress at every single crochet. The colour pattern can be drawn on square paper and has to be known before you start crocheting (to know how to thread on the beads).

The inside of the mouth is beadless and for the snake to be worn as a bracelet, it is sewn around the tail.
