A few years ago, I traveled to Neptune Beach Florida, it was so much fun. While there, I was inspired to create beach inspired crochet friendship bracelets. This is a beginner friendly crochet pattern using a well-known crochet stitch, which makes it soooo easy.
While we were there, I didn’t crochet much because we were playing in the water or skating most of the time, but I did come up with a little cute pattern for beach friendship bracelets – because it was so hard to not crochet at all for a week! 😊
Beach Inspired Crochet Friendship Bracelets
This pattern is so simple and fun, you can make a bunch in just a few a minutes! I wanted to create a simple, easy, and fun to make crochet friendship bracelet pattern.
This is a pattern where you can whip out 10 or more crochet bracelets in a day. These cute bracelets are the perfect summer project and great for crochet craft fairs.
Probably great to teach a beginner too or a perfect project for a child crocheter 😉 – I added some beads on the ends of the ties, and if you’re feeling ambitious, you can add more beads, or even a clasp and jump rings.
Materials:
Suggested Yarn: Cashmere De Contone or any cotton DK weight (3), I used colors: 0010, 0002, 0004, 0005, 0006, 0007
Yarn Details: (10% Cashmere, 90% Cotton)
Hook Size: 4 mm (G) – or recommended hook for the yarn you are using Scissors Beads (optional) – I purchased the stars from Michael’s.
Sizing: Pattern works in multiples of 4 + 3. Using DK weight yarn with a 4 mm hook will result in a bracelet approximately 7″ long (excluding the ties and depending on your crochet tension). Increase or reduce starting chain in multiples of 4 to increase or decrease size.
Abbreviations:
| ch | chain |
| dc | double crochet |
| lsc | long single crochet |
| st | stitch |
| sk st | skip stitch |
| * | repeat from * as many times indicated. |

Crochet Friendship Bracelets Pattern
The pattern below shows a double crochet crossing the other double crochets – ignore that! Unless you *want* to work it like that, that is okay too.! The long single crochet is what we work into the skipped stitch for this pattern (lsc).
Ch 34 + 3
Row 1: Dc in the 5th ch from hook, dc in next 2 sts (total of 3 dc’s), go back to the 4th chain from beginning, lsc in that st, *sk st, dc in next 3 sts, lsc in skipped st, repeat from * to end of row – you should have 2 ch’s left, sk st, dc in last st of row.
Finishing:
Cut a long tail (about 5 inches) pull through and tie starting tail and ending tails together with a knot.
Embellishing:
You can add beads to the tail ends by first tying a small knot, add the bead, then tie another knot to secure the bead in place.
To add the star beads: use some clear thread and sewing needle to attach them through the end where you tied the knots (kind of hiding the knots).
Congratulations! You’re Finished! See how easy that was???
