I promised the pattern so I'll pop one on but I do keep changing my mind, hence the 5 different covers in the picture.
I'm not sure which one is my favourite. The pattern below is for the green cover over the cup.
Anyway here is the pattern, please remember that I have never written a pattern for other people to use so if you find any mistakes or ways to improve then do let me know.
Enjoy
Using a 5mm hook and dk cotton and in English terms.
Thread your beads onto the cotton yarn, I used 10 for this one.
1) chain 5& join with a slip stitch.
2) chain 3 (counts as the first treble) 19 trebles into the ring.
3) chain 5 and treble into the same stitch. Miss one treble then *treble, chain 2, treble* into the next stitch, repeat from * to * join with a slip stitch into the initial chain 5.
4) chain 3 (counts as treble) treble into same space, chain 3. In the next chain 2 space, * 2 trebles, chain 3*. Repeat from * to * into each chain 2 space. Join with a slip stitch into initial chain 3. 2 slip stitches so that the next round starts in the chain 3 space.
5) chain 3 (counts as first treble) treble, chain 3, 2 trebles into same space.
Into next chain 3 space *2 trebles, chain 3, 2 trebles*
Repeat from * to * into each chain 3 space. Slip stitch into initial chain 3.
6) * chain 8, double crochet into chain 3 space * repeat from * to * all the way round. At the end, double crochet into the first chain 8.
7) *chain 10, double crochet into the chain 8 space* repeat from * to * all the way round. At the end, double crochet into the first chain 10.
8) *chain 6 add a bead from your yarn, chain 6, double crochet into chain 10 from previous round*. Repeat all the way round. Slip stitch into the final chain 10, fasten off and weave in the ends.
Pour yourself a big drink and pop your lovely, hand crocheted cover over the top.
Sweet daydreams :) x
how do you know how much yarn/thread to use? how do you keep the beads from falling off the end while youre crocheting? tie a knot in the end? I dont understand how to do this. I think I would need step by step directions from the beginning. Like putting the beads on, etc
