NECKLACEIt’s crocheted in the round.With medium gold thread and mustard nylon thread ch 2. R1: 6 sc in second ch from hook.R2: From this row on you will carry the macrame cord along. Sc 2 in each sc around= 12 sts. R3: Sc 12. Hold the loop with the stitch marker (see next page) and turn the piece inside out. The beginning threads will now be on the inside and you will crochet the next rows on the outside of the tube. Crochet a bit loosely so it doesn’t close too much. Try putting your index finger in while crocheting, this will help keeping an even width. It also makes turning the tube and crocheting easier.
