beaded crochet necklace



 A simple crochet & bead necklace.
Supplies: crochet thread (I used "5" weight crochet cotton), 3 beads, 2 jump rings, 1 spring closure ring and a size 1(B) crochet hook.
To make:  String 3 beads onto crochet thread.  Start crochet chain by pulling the first loop through a jump ring and then continue the chain for 8".  Slide 1 bead snug up to the chain and form next loop around it.  Chain 8 more loops, slide and crochet around next bead, chain 8 more and slide last bead up and crochet around it.  Continue chain for 8" and pull last loop through a jump ring.  Fasten off and weave ends in.  Attach spring closure.
