Notes

This is the first time, since 2006, that I’ve ever tried using silk and rayon threads for Clones Knot jewelry, and I’m bewitched with the Swallow Hill Rayon 5 Wt!
.
Also the first time I’ve tried Clones Knots with SOCK yarns.
.
Funny that I associate skinny, skinny cotton crochet thread with Clones Knots, just for historical reasons, yet it was easier to get neat, even, and cute pearly knots with very different yarns. For me, it’s trickiest with classic cotton crochet thread.
