About this design:
I was browsing LB designs and came across a lariat necklace I think Ali made. I gave it a try and I like the result. It is a change as you just loop around your neck with a loose knot, no need for a clasp.
Components:
6/0 black seed beads, Red creek jasper, 3mm gunmetal seed beads, done with 2 ply sage Irish waxed linen, gunmetal end cap with loop, dangles using leaf bead cap.Read the comments (or add your own)
