  • Using COLOR 1: Chain until the chain fits around your wrist (or the wrist of the person you're making the bracelet for) end to end. 
  • Chain 9 more.  (The bracelet overlaps 8 chains, the first two count as the first half double crochet, the other chains make up the rest of the 8).
  • Row 1: Using COLOR 1: Half Double Crochet (HDC) in 3rd chain from the hook and in all accross.
  • Row 2: Using COLOR 1:  Ch 2 to start the row. Half Double Crochet (HDC) in all previous rows HDCs UNTIL you have the 8 last HDCs left.  Measure the diameter of the button you plan on using to the stitches you have to determine how many HDCs you'll have to skip and chain instead. (Ex: The diameter of the button I used was the same size as three stitches, so I HDC in the next three, chained three and skipped three HDCs from the previous row, then HDC in the last two HDCs from the previous row).
  • Row 3: USING COLOR 2: Fasten off COLOR 1.  Attach COLOR 2 in last HDC from previous row.  HDC in each HDC from previous row, including HDC in the chain from the previous row the number of chains that were created. (Ex: The diameter of the button I used was the same size as three stitches, so I HDC three in the chain.)
  • Row 4: Using COLOR 2: Half Double Crochet (HDC) in all accross. 
  • Weave in ends.
  • Attach the button:  I used clear quilting thread to sew the button on, but  any matching thread will do.
