This necklace is all about customization. Whether you want a pop of color or a neutral tone, the choice is yours. The design encourages experimentation – from crocheting with multiple yarn strands for a unique twist to adjusting its length for the perfect fit. The sliding adjustable part ensures that it’s not only stylish but also comfortable.

Supplies: Yarn, crochet hook, scissors.

Crochet chain stitch

The crochet chain stitch is the bedrock of almost all crochet projects. It’s the first stitch most beginners learn and serves as the foundation row for many patterns. Simple in its execution, the chain stitch offers versatility in various projects, from simple jewelry to complex garments.

Steps for crochet chain stitch

Slip Knot: Create a loop with your yarn and insert your hook. Tighten to form a slip knot.
Position: Hold the hook in your dominant hand and maintain yarn tension with the other.
Yarn Over (YO): Catch the yarn with your hook.
Pull Through: Draw the yarn through the loop on your hook to form one chain stitch.
Repeat: Continue the YO and pull through the process for more chains.
Count: Count the V-shapes to determine chain stitches (excluding the loop on the hook).
Finish: Cut yarn, leaving a tail, and pull through the last loop to secure.
