Swarovski and macrame necklace

Simple style – it’s just four strands of rattail worked into a long braid of Square Knot macrame that is finished with ribbon crimps and a fastening. The Swarovski Fancy stones are wired together before being stitched to the macrame braid. This is featured in the new edition of Make and Sell Jewellery magazine

Kumihimo rope snake necklace

Kumihimo rope snake necklace

I spent the last 6 months working on a new book, The Knotting and Braiding Bible, which will be out next year. One of the techniques is Kumihimo and I was inspired to create this piece for the 2014 Autumn/ Winter Launch of Swarovski Elements. Like all designs it take a bit of trial and error to get the design right!
