From Cathy's Creations:
One of our most popular bracelets has been updated! The New Joey Bracelet features sterling silver balls, textured balls and Swarovski crystals, complete with a sterling silver puzzle piece charm with multi-colored crystals.
Today, it is estimated that one in every 110 children is diagnosed with autism, making it more common than childhood cancer, juvenile diabetes and pediatric AIDS combined. An estimated 1.5 million individuals in the U.S. and tens of millions worldwide are affected by autism.
Most of us know someone who has been diagnosed with Autism..I do. A sweet little boy named Joey. He is the most divine, lovable and funny little guy that I have ever met. For him and other little "Joey's", I made this bracelet.
A portion of the profits of this bracelet will be donated to Autism Speaks (www.autismspeaks.org)
The spiral crochet technique enables enough ‘give’ so that you may roll the bracelet right over your hand onto your wrist. Extremely comfortable, with no clasp to fumble with.
Average length 7.5 inches to roll over your average hand. Smaller and larger sizes available to accommodate diversity in hand size.
About Cathy's Creations:
Cathy creates beautiful bead crochet bracelets for every age and size using a variety of glass beads, Swarovski crystals, pearls and sterling silver. She has worked her magic on a number of fabulous designs on display in her shop, but even better, she will work with you to custom design a bracelet for your needs!

Each bracelet is made by stringing hundreds of beads, one-by-one, on strong synthetic thread. The threaded beads are then hand crocheted into a flexible, comfortable fabric tube, leaving a bead in every stitch. An invisible and secure seam is sewn to join together the two ends.

Don't you just love it! And Cathy makes some other great cause jewelry and fabulous stuff for all seasons! So, I was able to convince Cathy to donate a Joey Bracelet for my Autism Awareness Month event and you can win it!
