crochet bangles

I saw some crocheted bangles online awhile back. I'm not too fond of bangles but I wanted to try making some. I can't remember the site where I found them. Anyway, here are my versions. The striped one is crocheted in rounds using size 8 cotton thread and for the beaded one, I used size 10 acrylic thread with hematite beads and it is crocheted crosswise in a long strip before joining the ends. These were then attached to wooden bangles then I sewed the underside so they will stay in place. These were fun to make!
