This is an original pattern by yours truly. Bead crochet is deceptively easy -- if you can chain, single, and double crochet, you can make this necklace.

Materials needed: size 3 crochet cotton, 270 size 6 seed beads, 2.75mm hook (I used a size 1 steel hook), and depending on desired closure, a button or ribbon.

The pattern is written for a 16.5” choker, but it’s easily lengthened by pre-stringing more beads and adding multiples of 3 chains to the starting chain.
