Easy peasey lemon squeezy...

Simple bead row-counter bracelet - a small abacus for the wrist.


This version has two cords with beads separated by a small rubber ring that easily allows one bead at at time to pass through.
One cord has nine beads as 'units', the other cord has ten beads as 'tens'. At the beginning of your count the ring should be slid to one end.


As you count 1-9, the unit beads should be slid through the ring...


until you reach 10 when you slide your first ten bead through the ring.


Now slide your unit beads back through the ring and start again.


Easy peasy lemon squeezy...


Every time you go past your ninth row, just slide another ten bead down and start again.
