A simple but elegant set of crochet lace jewelry worked around a string of beads. The pattern notes include instructions on how to string the beads to work the lace along the sides.

To make the lace more delicate this design uses a 1.25 mm hook and size 20 crochet cotton. Size 20 crochet cotton is the same thickness as 8 wt embroidery cotton, or 4-ply sewing thread worked together. Any of these alternatives can be substituted.

The necklace is designed to sit at the base of the throat, like a collar. The bracelet and earrings use the same design as the necklace for a cohesive look.

Total material requirements are:

• 1.25 mm steel crochet hook
• 79 8-mm round beads
• 8 stitch markers
• 10 yds strong sewing or beading thread
• 50 yds size 20 crochet thread + metallic filament
• Jewelry hardware: 2 lobster clasps, 4 jump rings, 2 earring hooks

Additionally, the yardage required for each piece is listed separately in the pattern.
