Part 1 Dreamcatcher A

It consists of the main piece, hanging decorations, and the hanging string.

Step 1 Main piece 00' 43''

First, we'll make the main piece. It is composed of fabric pieces and decorative beads. Crochet the fabric piece first, then sew on the beads. Please refer to the video demonstration for specifics.

Note: When working the eighth round, secure one thread from the top of each cluster in the fourth round at the same time. For the sixteenth round, work the single crochets through the back loop only. Before working the last round, steam block the piece to lay flat. When working the last round, wrap the large circular motif.
