    Some bead crochet necklaces really allow the beads to shine. Others, like this one, emphasize the beauty of the crochet stitches and allow the beads to simply supplement the yarn craft.

    This one is designed as a choker necklace, although if you're knowledgable about crochet you could easily adapt it to make a longer necklace. You'll work with basic crochet stitches including single crochet and half double crochet.​ The beads are encased in little semi-circles that are surprisingly easy to create.

    This crochet pattern is written in US crochet terms. However, UK crafters receive a stitch conversion chart to make it easy for them to use as well.

    This crochet necklace pattern uses single crochet and chain stitches. It's a 7-row crochet pattern worked in thick crochet thread or weight 0 yarn. The pattern is available to fit three different neck sizes.
