Enjoy a free video tutorial to accompany the PDF diagram for this design! I love how this design incorporates the superduos as pops of color at the connection points, but in a totally different way than in the Nadine Necklace design from my previous post. The piece is woven with nearly the same number of crystals (or round beads), which makes for a symmetrical contrast of color. Using bright colors that contrast one another seems to work best with this design, in my opinion. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!
Materials
For this design you need 66 – 72 4mm crystals (bicone or round) or round beads, superduos, 11/0 seed beads (TOHO or Czech), and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to connect a clasp with jump rings. Using 11/0 TOHO seed beads, a 16-inch necklace (with clasp) requires 66 crystals. With 11/0 Czech seed beads (slightly smaller than TOHO), a 16-inch necklace requires 72 crystals.
