This is a pattern for a bead crocheted necklace that’s both fun to make and wear. It features brightly colored diamonds that interlock, showing off both the colors and the shapes. If you like brightly colored necklaces for the summer, pick bold colors. However, if you would like a more sophisticated necklace, try crocheting it using all metallic beads.

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 15-around.

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