Description: |
Stitch a classic drop necklace with
CRAW! Cubic right-angle weave (CRAW) is a great stitch for
structural components, as it can easily bend into curves and
circles and maintain those shapes with just the right
embellishment. This necklace combines loops of CRAW with
links to sparkly crystals, which are bezeled with an elegant
combination of seed beads stitched together with peyote and
double-right angle weave (DRAW). Extend the necklace with as
many loops and links as you'd like, and finish it with a
beaded double toggle clasp that hooks right into the links.
In this class you'll use DRAW and peyote stitch to
bezel circular and drop crystals using Japanese seed beads.
Then you'll use CRAW and RAW to stitch the loops and links
that join these components together. You'll finish the
necklace with a custom beaded clasp that integrates neatly
into the finished design.
