Earning-My-Cape: Crochet Cuff Bracelet

IMPORTANT NOTE

Hello, and welcome.

I would like to inform you that I AM MOVING.

...well, sort of. I have started a new blog, Oui Crochet, that focuses just on crochet, crochet patterns, and crochet resources. I am in the process of building it up as a one stop shop for all things crochet, and I am very excited about it. I hope you will come over and check out my progress. :)

I will be moving my patterns from this site, to my new site. My idea is to leave this site active, so that you can still access other aspects of this site. I will also leave a modified "introduction" post where each pattern is on this site, as to keep all links active and make it so that you can easily locate the pattern's new home. As an added bonus, you will also find new printable/downloadable versions of my patterns.
I apologize for any inconvenience, but I assure you, this change is a positive one. I look forward to seeing you at Oui Crochet.
Happy Crocheting!

Crochet Seed Stitch Cuff {free pattern}

A little while back, I won a large assortment of crafting twine from The Twinery. I immediately knew that I wanted to use it for crochet projects. Well, I finally got around to making a few things. One of the things I made is a cue little seed stitch cuff bracelet. I used the Gold Shimmer twine and finished it off with an inexpensive, but cute little plastic purl-y button.

Gilded Fans Crochet Cuff Bracelet

I really enjoy crocheting jewelry. I like that I can start a project and be completely finished with it an couple hours later. This is particularly when I've been working on a larger project that takes weeks to finish!
I was looking through my pattern/stitch folder... just a simple pocket folder where I ~~stuff~~ file patterns or stitch tutorials that I print out or tear from the free project thingy hanging on yarn racks. I was hoping to be inspired for a quick project... it worked.

I've had the Gilded Fans stitch tutorial printed out and waiting for me to figure out how I was going to use it, for quite some time. Then it hit me! I could make an elegant cuff bracelet! I ended up having to adapt the stitch just slightly, so that it would work with this project. Once I tried a couple of things, and got it figured out, it was smooth sailing from there. I really like how it turned out, too!

Here's how to make it:
