Tools

Crocheting yarn; a Big Eye needle or a stringing needle with a loop made of fine thread; a 1.25 mm hook; scissors; metal parts

Procedure

Step 1

First string the seed beads onto the crocheting yarn according to the pattern (fig. no. 1a - the pattern). You need about 480 cm for a 40 cm tube stringing. String 30x R10 at the beginning and the end of the stringing (fig. no. 1b).

Step 2

Make the initial loop (fig. no. 2a), then crochet 2 chain stitches without any seed beads (fig. no. 2b). Thread the hook through the first loop and then single crochet 6 stitches into the first loop in the chain; this should create a circle (fig. no. 2c).

Step 3

Continue single crocheting behind both threads (V): poke the hook under the thread, slide on one seed from above and single crochet (fig. no. 3a - 3c). Create the entire row in the same way (fig. no. 3d).

Step 4

Continue with the second row: poke the hook under the thread, slide on one seed from above and single crochet. Then add another seed bead to the same loop (2 single crochet stitches will be created in one loop), (fig. no. 4a). Create the entire row in the same way (fig. no. 4b).

Step 5

Crochet ca 3 cm of the tube (fig. no. 5a). Attaching the fastening to the end of the tube: string a 6/0 bead onto an eye pin, insert it into the tube, then string R6 and R8 seed beads (of your choice) and twist an eye using pliers with rounded jaws (fig. nos. 5b - 5c). Once you have crocheted the entire spiral (when you have the last 6 remaining seed beads), proceed as follows at the other end: string a 6/0 bead onto an eye pin, insert it into the tube (fig. nos. 5d), crochet the last 6 seed beads on alternate seed beads (fig. no. 5e). String R6 and R8 seed beads (of your choice) and twist an eye using pliers with rounded jaws (fig. no. 5f).
