Necklace Pendant

This is a gift for my step mother, she loves cherry blossoms, so I decided to make her a pendent to go on a necklace. It has a lot of detail and is surprisingly easy to make.

Here is what you will need

Fine wire (tarnish resistant) - 26, 28, 30 gauge (the larger the gauge the smaller the wire is, which makes it easier to work with your crochet hook)

Crochet hook - I used a j/10-6 mm metal hook

chain (same metal as the wire you are using) you will attach the pendant to both sides of the chain.

Beads - though this says cherry blossoms beads, you can use what ever type of bead you want. 7 (cherry blossom beads), 10 seed beads. Get compliment colors for the beads.

Scissors - to cut the wire of course (its very fine so normal scissors will work)

stitches that are used in this pendant

slip knot, foundation chain, single crochet, treble crochet, double treble crochet, and slip stitch.

Step 1

Decide your bead placement and then but all the beads besides 2 seed beads (these will be used later to attach the chain) in the same order on your wire.

Step 2

slip stitch, chain 2, continue chaining with a bead on each chain until you are out of beads, chain 2.

Step 3

Turn your work do a single crochet stitch (in the back loops only) into the second stitch from the hook and everyone afterwards.

You should now have something similar to this

Step 4

Chain 2, treble crochet 7 away from the hook, double treble crochet 3 away from the hook, double treble crochet 3 away from the hook, treble crochet 3 away from the hook. Chain 2 and slip stitch to the other end of the opposite chain.

step 5

Is attaching the pendant to the chain, put the seed bead and chain on the wire pull through the seed bead and tighten the wire until there is no extra wire near the chain. Loop the end of the wire around the pendant and cut with enough wire remaining to go into the seed bead halfway. (make sure everything is tightened before you cut the wire)

Step 6

Readjust all the beads on your pendant so they are hanging they way you want them to.
