beaded socks pattern
pick up the end of your crochet thread (it should still be attached to the ball) and place approximately 65 beads onto the thread using a small needle or your hands.
insert your crochet hook into the edge of the sock’s ribbing and pull up a loop. holding both threads, chain 2 and then drop the thread end.
pull a bead up the thread toward the hook, yarn over, and pull through the loop on your hook to secure the bead. chain 2.
skip 2-3 stitches on the sock, insert hook and make a single crochet stitch.
repeat the same steps (chain 2, insert bead, chain 2, skip 2-3 stitches, single crochet) around the entire sock.
when you reach the end, single crochet into the stitch you started with, cut the thread and tie off.
remove any leftover beads from the thread. weave in the thread ends and your sock is complete!
repeat all instructions to complete second sock.
