A Tunisian Crochet Beaded Bracelet

I bought a selection of balls of hemp yarn in the summer and I kept looking at them, thinking what can I make. I liked the colours and I also had a few bags of matching beads, so here's my first play. A Tunisian crochet beaded bracelet, it used nearly a whole ball, only 13 balls left eeekk!

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I am doing a one day course for the Knitting and Crochet Guilds London group (Crocheted and knitted wire & beads 14th April near Highbury & Islington Station contact Eleanor 02089508014 for details) and decided to get all my samples ready. Arrrrrr can't find them, I think I put them in the recycling bins when I was going through a clearing mood a few months ago.

Instead of getting upset I have been making new samples :) So below is the results of the last two days of playing with beads.

I am playing with wire for the rest of the week.
