Here’s a free downloadable jewelry project from Kalmbach Publishing that was posted on the jewelryandbeading.com blog. It is from the January 2007 issue of BeadStyle magazine . This one is called “Quick Knots Yield a Delicate Necklace,” and along with the necklace, there is also instructions for matching earrings. The necklace incorporates techniques of knotting to create stations of pearl beads, and the focal piece is a large gemstone bead.
