I started work on it yesterday and finished today a new crocheted lace necklace.
Crocheted lace necklace: cotton thread and various glass beads, pearls and sequins.
This is based on the crocheted lace “Shell and Bobble.”
Here is a closer look at the clasp of the necklace, with a wooden bead and a crocheted buttonhole.

The sequins, pearls and beads are sewn in by hand after the crochet lace is completed. The detail of the bead work is shown below.

This crocheted lace necklace is very easy to make but you need to be very patient with beading. I made some lace necklaces earlier using rayon.

Below is an earlier version of the crocheted lace necklace. This was made using glitter cotton thread.

Love it, very feminine!
You are a True Artist! I have been crocheting (along with many other craft mediums) for 20+ and it is rare that I see work that is so creative & unique. Your creativity is truly inspirational! Keep up the amazing work…
Thank you! I have artist colleagues who don’t think that what I am doing is “art”, that this is only “craft”, but thanks to the perspective of people like you who work creatively with materials and with their minds and hearts – yes, we are making true art!!!
