Beads: 6/0 beads (24 beads total); Toho Gold-lined Crystal beads recommended
Beading Needle: Shappy beading needles

Gauge: 21 stitches and 12 rows in a 10 cm (4-inch) square using double crochet (dc).

Abbreviations(US Terminology):

Crab Stitch – Reverse single crochet worked into the previous stitch.
Standing Stitches – Stitches made without attaching to a previous stitch (start with a slip knot on your hook).
Back Post (BP) – Insert hook around the post of a stitch from back to front, then complete the stitch.
Front Post (FP) – Insert hook around the post of a stitch from front to back, then complete the stitch.

Ch 57 (or adjust the chain length in multiples of 3 for your desired width).

Row 1:
- Starting in the 4th ch from the hook (counts as the first dc), work 1 dc in each remaining chain across.
- You should have 55 stitches at the end of the row.
Row 2:
- Ch 3 (counts as the first dc), turn.
- Work 1 dc in each stitch across the row.
- Ensure your stitch count remains consistent at 55.

Row 3 (Creating the Spiral Texture):
- Ch 4 (counts as the first tr), skip the next 2 stitches.
- Work 1 tr into the next stitch, ch 1, then go back and work 1 dc into the first skipped stitch (this creates the crossed effect).
- Repeat from * to the end of the row. You’ll end with 1 tr in the last stitch.
Row 4 (Smoothing the Pattern):
- Ch 1, turn.
- Work 1 sc in each stitch and ch-1 space across the row.
Row 5 (Adding More Texture):
- Ch 4 (counts as the first tr), skip 1 stitch.
- Work 1 quadtr (yarn over 5 times) into the next stitch, then work 1 tr into the skipped stitch (crossing the stitches).
- Repeat from * to the end of the row.
Row 6:
- Ch 1, turn.
- Work 1 sc across the row, ensuring you stitch into each post and space for consistent edge shaping.
Repeat Rows 3-6: Continue repeating these rows to create the ammonite texture. The crossover stitches (Rows 3 and 5) form the signature spiral design.

Before starting this section, thread all 24 beads onto your yarn.
Row 1 (Beaded Single Crochet):
- Ch 1, work 1 sc into the first 2 stitches.
- Slide one bead close to your hook, yarn over, and complete the next sc, enclosing the bead.
- Work 2 plain sc, then another beaded sc.
- Repeat this pattern (2 plain sc, 1 beaded sc) across the row.
Crab Stitch Border:
- Once the beaded row is complete, work Crab Stitch (reverse single crochet) around all edges of the hook roll.
- In each corner, work 3 sc to maintain a smooth turn.

Button Loop:
- On one short edge, locate the center stitch. Attach yarn, ch 10 (or as needed to create a loop that fits snugly around your button), and join with a sl st to the same stitch.
- Fasten off and weave in the ends.
Button Attachment: On the opposite short edge, sew on the button securely. Position it so the loop can easily wrap around the button to close the roll.
