Instructions
Gauge: Not critical for this project, but aim for a tight fabric to maintain shape.
Part 1: Crochet Elements
Roses (Make 7-9, using Yarn A)
Row 1: Ch 25. Working in the back bump of the chain, (sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in next ch, 2 dc in next ch, dc in next ch, hdc in next ch, sc in next ch, sl st in next ch). Repeat this sequence 3 more times across the chain. You should have 4 petal sections.
FO, leaving a long tail for sewing.
Starting from the end where you made the first ‘sc’, carefully roll the strip tightly into a spiral, forming a rose. Use the tail to sew through the base of all layers to secure the rose shape. Weave in ends.
Leaves (Make 12-15, using Yarn B)
Ch 6. Sl st in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next ch, hdc in next ch, dc in next ch, sl st in last ch.
FO, leaving a tail for sewing. Weave in one end.
Small Crochet Beads (Make 15-20 in Yarn C, 15-20 in Yarn D)
Round 1: Start with a MR, 6 sc. (6 stitches)
Round 2: Inc in each st around. (12 stitches)
Round 3: Sc in each st around.
Round 4: Dec in each st around. (6 stitches)
Lightly stuff with a small scrap of yarn or a small pearl bead if desired for extra firmness.
Sl st to first sc to close. FO, leaving a tail to weave in.
Part 2: Lace Foundation and Assembly
Lace Foundation (Using Yarn C)
This forms the central element to which the roses and leaves are attached.
Ch 40 (adjust length as needed for desired curve).
Row 1: Sl st in 2nd ch from hook. Sc in next 2 ch. *Ch 3, skip 2 ch, (sc, picot, sc) in next ch, ch 3, skip 2 ch, sc in next 3 ch.* Repeat from * across the remaining chain, ending with sc in the last 3 ch if necessary to fit. This creates a series of arches and picots.
FO, leaving a long tail for attaching to the main necklace chain.
Attach Roses and Leaves to Lace Foundation
Arrange the roses and leaves onto the lace foundation, overlapping slightly, referring to the image.
Using the tails from the roses and leaves, carefully sew them securely onto the lace foundation. Weave in all remaining tails.
Part 3: Necklace Chains and Dangling Elements
Main Necklace Chain (Make 2 sections, one for each side)
Using Yarn C, Yarn D, Seed Beads, and Pearl Beads.
Cut a length of Yarn C (approx 30 inches) and thread a tapestry needle onto one end. String on an alternating pattern of Small Crochet Beads (Yarn C and Yarn D), and Small White Pearl Beads. Also string small seed beads intermittently.
Create a repeating sequence: [Crochet Bead (Yarn C), string 3-5 seed beads, Small Pearl Bead, string 3-5 seed beads, Crochet Bead (Yarn D), string 3-5 seed beads, Small Pearl Bead, string 3-5 seed beads]. Continue until each side chain is your desired length (approx. 8-10 inches).
Securely attach one end of each chain to the ends of the Lace Foundation using sl sts and sewing.
Attach a jump ring to the free end of one chain and the lobster claw clasp to the free end of the other chain, using a jump ring.
Dangling Elements (Make 5-7, random placement)
Cut short lengths of Yarn C (approx. 4-6 inches each).
Thread a tapestry needle onto one end. String on a mix of seed beads and small crochet beads (Yarn A, C, or D) to create varied lengths and patterns, as seen in the image. Secure the beads with a small knot at the bottom.
Attach the top end of each dangling strand to the bottom edge of the Lace Foundation at various points using sl st or by sewing.
Finishing
Weave in all remaining loose ends.
(Optional) To give the necklace a stiffer, more defined shape, gently apply fabric stiffener to the lace foundation, roses, and leaves. Allow to dry completely according to product instructions.
