This is a pattern for a bead crochet necklace featuring a colorful braided motif. It is pictured here in “fall-ish” colors, but if you wanted it to look more spring-like colors, try pastels. The “woven” look will look great in lots of color variations. The sample is finished with a manufactured findings, but the pattern includes instructions for alternative finishing techniques, including beaded bead caps. The necklace is made using the slip stitch method of bead crochet, and is made exclusively with size #11 Japanese seed beads. It is crocheted 16-around.

Skill Level: Intermediate - Intermediate + (assuming a good working knowledge of the slip stitch method of bead crochet)
