Crochet Chain, Metal Clay Charm, and Bead Necklace

Tammy Powley
When I was browsing in my local craft store the other day, I spotted some very interesting looking metallic yarn. I knew right then I had to figure out a way to combine this with some metal jewelry components. As a result, I mixed jewelry techniques as well as various media in this necklace design that incorporates crocheting, metal clay, bead knotting, and wire work. While there's a lot going on, the design is actually fairly easy to make.

You'll need:

Ruler
Size 10 metallic crochet thread
Size "o" (3-3.25mm) crochet hook
1 Wire Coil Cone Jewelry Clasp
3 - 7x5mm tube-shaped Bali-style silver beads
1 Silver Metal Clay Heart Beads
Scissors
Tacky Glue
