Materials:

  • Narrow Satin Ribbon (ribbon shown here is 1/8 inch wide)
  • Crochet Thread (I used Aunt Lydia’s bamboo thread)
  • Beads (I used glass and crystal, about 60)
  • B (2.25 mm) crochet hook
  • scissors
  • small needle (large enough to get the crochet thread into the eye of the needle, but small enough to pass through each bead…I used a cross stitch needle and it was the perfect size)

Sizing:

  • You can make you necklace any length, necklace pictured is about 40 inches long (before tying the knot)

Instructions:

  1. Thread all beads onto crochet thread.  Decide how much space you’d like between your beads.  Necklace shown has a bead on every 5th chain, so I chained 5, then added the first bead, then repeat to desired length.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail.  Add 6 or so beads to each tail for beaded tassel look and fasten off with a knot.
  3. Cut a piece of ribbon the same length.
  4. Wrap around neck and tie into a knot. Be sure you can slip necklace over the head to take it off.  All finished!

  1. I'm going to try this today 🙂 I'm wondering why did you put the ribbon through needle .. didn't see you using that eventually.. maybe be I missed some step.
