Since my bracelet is for a little girl, I only made 5 motifs. Make the number you would need to fit around the wrist of your intended wearer.
Here is the pattern to work the flowers, but see below for different joining options before you get started.
Ch 6, join with Sl st in furthest ch from hook to form a ring.
Round 1: Ch 1 (does not count as st), work 16 scs into ring, join in 1st sc of round — 16 scs.
Round 2: Ch 1 (does not count as st), beginning in same st as join, *work [1 sc, ch 3, 1 sc], skip next st, rep from * 7 more times, join in 1st sc of round — 8 ch-3 spaces.
Round 3: Ch 1 (does not count as st), work 5 scs in each ch-3 sp around, join in 1st sc of round — 40 sts.
Fasten off.
Joining
To join the flowers into a bracelet, you can simply make all your motifs and then sew them together with a needle and thread or you can use the join as you go method (JAYGO).
To use the JAYGO method, complete your first flower as indicated above. But for your second flower and each after that, repeat Rounds 1 and 2 as above but work Round 3 as follows:
Round 3: Ch 1 (does not count as st), *work 5 scs in next ch-3 sp, repeat from * 5 more times, **in next ch-3 sp [work 2 scs, drop loop from hook and insert into 3rd st of petal on the flower you want to join it to and pull through the loop, continue working 3 sc in same ch-3 sp], repeat from ** for final petal, join in 1st sc of round — 40 sts.
Fasten off.
Using a sewing needle and your thread, sew bracelet closures to each side of your bracelet. Weave in all ends securely.
