A lightweight beaded kerchief with a beautiful drape. I named this the Pearl kerchief because the first iteration included pearls beads, and I find the name Pearl to be gorgeous. :-3

small yarn needle

beads

Filet crochet experience is not strictly required as a brief tutorial is provided, although pattern comprehension and knowledge of the listed stitches are required to follow the tutorial and pattern. For this kerchief, I use the chain 2 treble crochet method.

Two sizes are included: with the listed materials (and my personal tension), the large size comes out to be ~45 cm across the top and ~24cm long. The small size is ~37 cm lengthwise and has a ~20cm height.

The hook and thread size can vary, though it will increase/decrease the size of the project accordingly.

A wire-free method of attaching beads is provided in the “attaching beads” section. Unfortunately, attaching beads with jump rings causes curly/textured hair to snag.
