Clusters of Fun Kumihimo Necklace Kit - Picasso
$ 26.00
Description:
This is a fun necklace to make and even though many of you have made "clusters" this one is a bit different. But you'll have to try it to find out! This is very easy and pretty quick.
I have used C-Lon Tex 400 for the "rope" portion of the braid and a combination of 8/0 and 6/0 Toho and Miyuki Seed Beads for the Clusters. The pattern is written for a 27" necklace (give or take) with 13 beaded clusters. You can make the necklace shorter if you like. For someone that likes a shorter necklace and has a small wrist, you could buy an extra 5mm All-in-One magnetic clasp and make a necklace and a bracelet.
Kit includes:
- C-Lon Tex 400
- 8/0 Toho/Miyuki Seed Beads
- 6/0 Toho/Miyuki Seed Beads
- 5mm All-in-One Magnetic Clasp
