To the old version, I added an extra row of stitches to the foundation and some embroidery embellishment. I also changed the yarn to Berroco's Ultra Alpaca Light, because it comes in many beautiful colors and is really nice to work with.
This necklace would make a great gift or a lovely addition to your own jewelry collection! The link to the download is below, under the pattern details.
This elegant necklace takes very little time or yarn. It is a versatile piece that is easily customizable. Make a wool version for winter to wear over turtlenecks, and a cotton version to wear in the summer. You can also make the blossoms multi-colored and add beads or sequins to them. The possibilities are endless! This blog post features the necklace with beaded blossoms, and here is a pattern for earrings inspired by this necklace.
