Use your cotton crochet thread to crochet a covering over a bone or plastic loop. You can find these loops in the craft department of your local mass retail store; purchase one (or a set) in 1/2 inch or 1 inch diameter size. Single crochet around the circumference of this loop to cover it fully and join with a slip stitch.

Crochet into your single crochet stitches to make a pattern stitch. For a simple pattern, make a double crochet stitch in the first single crochet stitch, then chain one and skip the next single crochet stitch. Follow this pattern all the way around the circle and then join with a slip stitch.

For the third round, add a decorative edging. Slip stitch into the first double crochet stitch, then slip stitch, chain three, and slip stitch again all into the chain-one space. Repeat this pattern around and fasten off your work.
