Crochet Large Candy Candy Pattern:

Crochet Hook: K/10½/6.5MM
Yarn: ANY 2 strand of yarn will work for this pattern.  Scrap yarn is IDEAL.  If working the 4-skein challenge with me, grab the cream and varsity green colors
*NOTE: for the entire pattern, we are going to work two strands of yarn simultaneously like they are one strand for the entire project.  
Attach yarn to crochet hook using a slip knot.
Row 1: CH 54, turn.
Row 2: Skip first 4 CH st, in the BLO of 5th CH, place 1 DC.  Then working backwards, place 1 BEAD st in the BLO of the 3rd CH st (2 back from current st).  CH 1 to complete the BEAD st.  *Skip 2 CH st, then place 1 DC in the BLO of the 3rd CH.  Working backwards, place 1 BEAD st in the BLO of the 1st skipped st.  CH 1 to complete the BEAD st.* Repeat * around the row.  You should have 17 BEAD stitches and 1 st remaining.  Place 1 DC in the BLO of the last st of the row. CH 2, turn.
