There is something about the way the beads sweep across this necklace that makes it very appealing. It is fun to knit because you have to pay just a little attention. Deciding what beads to use is the most challenging part of the project. Knowing how to do German Short Rows is very helpful but if you prefer W&T, that works too.
Size can be adjusted by needle size or yarn or can be slightly increased by adding beads before the clasp, which I always do. I highly recommend using a good quality merino wool, preferably with a little silk. Perfect use of scrap yarn.
