Leafy Vine Lariat Necklace

This piece was made for my personal collection- I really wanted a leafy/vine necklace. I used netting stitch for this, which I had used before but never in this loose, unstructured way. I had these pressed Czech glass leaf beads I wanted to use and this was one project where I was able to use my bead spinner which is really fun!

Stitched with Czech glass leaf beads, size 11 seed beads, gold metallic donut beads and various metal charms.

Pattern: Netting stitch

Finished March 2025

Sadly, this piece was stolen while on display at a local art show in April 2025.
