At the Stitches and Craft show I was taken by a knitted necklace and just had to make one.
The yarn is Gail by Dairing in the shade of blue. Its a mixture of Rayon and Metallic. It is so simple to make as its all done in stocking stitch using 8mm needles. Cast on 8 stitches then knit to the length you like. You stitch the ends together to form the circular shape. It is done with 2 strands of yarn. I was advised from the size cone I brought to wind half of it onto something else (I used an old blank dvd spindle) so that I would then have 2 strands of yarn. I can easily get about 3 or 4 necklaces out of one cone.
I’m not normally a jewellery person but I really like this. It looks so complicated with all the links but in reality is so simple. I made this is in a couple of hours.
Wow, that’s just gorgeous! I’ll bet it feels wonderful to wear.
Thank you. Its lovely and light feeling.
really great idea, looks so delicate. Would be proud to wear that 🙂
Thanks. I keep running my fingers over the links. You should have a go at making one for yourself.
unfortunately I cant knit, I want to try 🙂
