This necklace and earring set employs the popular St. Petersburg stitch, with bugle beads added to create the “fringe” or “feather” look. This pattern demonstrates both the single St. Petersburg stitch (for the necklace), as well as the double St. Petersburg stitch (for the earrings) made with bugle beads. You can experiment with using larger beads for the “spine” beads, or shorter/longer bugles, or even different combinations of beads instead of bugles. There are many possible variations you can play with, which makes this a fun pattern. This piece was made with matte bronze and matte rainbow teal 11/0 seed beads with rainbow green Czech #3 (6.4mm) bugle beads. Enjoy!
