Crocheted Beaded Necklace & Wrap Bracelet Using Habu Root Sizing Silk
The Design
This simple project, brought to us several years ago by our friend Debbie MacLeod, makes a sparkly accessory and a thoughtful gift. Vary the bead spacing, mix up the colors, add a button, wear them in multiples—keep a bunch on hand for gifting and trading!
The Crocheted Beaded Necklace & Wrap Bracelet Kit contains a printed pattern, one paddle of Habu Habu Root Sizing Silk, one container of size 6 seed beads, two needles, and three shell buttons for closures. All you’ll need is a size US B/1 (2.25 mm) crochet hook!
Please note: One Habu paddle contains enough silk to make 6-7 necklaces measuring 38” (96.5 cm). One container of the glass seed beads should be enough to make up to three 38” (96.5 cm) necklaces—or two 38” (96.5 cm) and one 19” (48.3 cm) necklaces. You should have enough silk left over from your kit to make more necklaces using size 6 seed beads (available separately). We also offer individual packets of three shell buttons and two needles.
