I designed this bell as a small Christmas Tree decoration or (if worked in a fine thread) as a motif to be added to a wedding / wedding anniversary card.  It can also be used to make earrings.  The bell is made in one ‘round’. 

Wsh1

working shuttle 1

Wsh2

working shuttle 2

SR

split ring

LB

large bead

SB

small bead

LJ

lock join (join using shuttle thread)

+B

add bead to picot before joining

Add 2 small beads, then 1 large bead to Wsh2 before starting.  17 further small beads will be needed for adding to picots before joining.  This motif is worked in one round.  Start with Wsh1

For the earrings I made the picot on R12 long enough to add several beads before attaching to the finding.  Any problems with this pattern, please email me janeeborall@onetel.net.uk
