Bejeweled Dog Collar Bangle

Lorelie Dazo — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 13:41:10 +0000

This is my second proper attempt on felting wool. Remember the bracelet I have felted before? I did the same thing on this one but repeated the whole procedure a number of times until I can barely distinguish the individual stitches. I am quite satisfied with the effect J The photos may not be too good to see the effect of felting. I think I am closer to creating a similar felted bangle on my felted wishlist Wish me luck!

This was one of the reasons why i’ve been wanting to have wool yarns. I want to try felting and hehe. it was not easy as i thought. The yarn did not felt the way i wanted it because my (lack of) patience took over.

I cannot share yet the experience since i am more excited about the result. I will share next time the steps I had taken but i want to share this wrist wrap i was able to make:

NOTE: If you want to order a blouse of the same kind, kindly leave a comment below

Materials:

Materials Used for making crocheted wrist band

8 metal links
1 wire with loop at end
buttons
Chrochet Thread (texture is like the DMC Thread used for cross stitch).
2 metal bars
1.6 mm crochet hook
needle (big)

I bought the metal links, bars, and wires at Quiapo. The metal bars costs around 20Php/pack (contains 10), the links and wires are around the same price.

The buttons I used came from stashed buttons given to me by a local wholesale store of threads and other tailoring needs. (I’ll post a blog later)

Choose Buttons with this kind of back:

Buttons used

The purpose of this is the button will serve as the lock of the band.

The yarn’s frm Rosario Pasig. It was given to me free by the manong. Because I bought two kilos of yarns from him.

All in all, the materials came cheap. It took me less than 30 minutes to create this accessory.

Instructions:

Make a knot

Tighten the knot

Make a knot around one metal bar. And tighten it.This will serve as your first sc.

Make 8 sc around the chain like this:

First row of single crochet

Turn around. Chain 3 (serve as 1 dc). 8 DC into each next sc.

Second row of 9 dc

Create 9 rows with 9 DC.

Cut the yarn with a scissor, We will have to sew the yarn into the second metal bar with a needle.

Sewing the other end

The crocheted wrist band

Attach 3 metal links on each side of the metal bars. Then connect the 3rd links from both sides with the loop of the our wire.

Putting the links and improvised hook

Form the wire into a hook.

Improvised Hook

Attach three links in each side on the other metal bar. COnnect the 3rd links with another metal link. Connect the fourth link and the button using another metal link.

With Buttons Attached
