I did not have a problem with the cross. I cannot figure out how to get the bead started. What do you use for the stitch to attach the bead to?

[...] pattern is similar to my rosary pattern, but it had a different number of beads, easier cross, and different bead [...]

I can’t wait to try this rosary. I’ve been hunting forever for a cross and rosary all in one that is simple & quick. I hope that I can understand it and make it work. One of our groups at church does the Divine Mercy Chaplet at the nursing home and this would be great if I could make some for them…..Also great for the military…..Thanks again so much…

@isa3187 I just used standard Sugar and Cream from Lily or regular old Red Heart/Love the Yarn acrylic

Ivory Soap, thank you so much for putting together that diagram of the cross. reading the instructions just confused me but seeing the diagram I was able to put it together with no problem . The only problem is when I get to the big bead the yarn is very hard to work with and I can’t make 11 loops. I saw that the kind of yarn you use is worsted weight acrylic or cotton yarn which is what I did but i am having a hard time. I used both types of yarn but both were 4ply. I dont know if that makes a difference. please let me know the kind of yarn you used, thank you so much.

I loved this pattern, a lady at my work donated bunch of yarn and I made lots of them and now need to send them off to a charity.
thanks for sharing.

@ anna–there is no turn. It’s crocheting in the round. You ch the eight, then go back on itself to start the sc, sc, ch, sc. Then you go down one side and do the bottom and back up the other. slip stitch it together and then start the chains and beads. There’s no turning. The only turning happens on the triangle in the middle.
