Summer Forest Pendant and Double Spiral Rope Necklace

Using the tail on the other end of one rope, pick up 2 C, 1 A, 5 C, one half of the clasp, and 4 C. Pass needle back through the last 1 C, 1 A and 2 C and into the core beads (A) of the rope. Weave back up through one of the sets of accent beads, back into the core beads, and reinforce the thread path.

Weave back down into the core beads (A) for about 4 or 5 inches. Tie a few half-hitch knots, weave in a bit more, and then trim the thread close to the beadwork.

Repeat on the other side of the necklace for the other half of the clasp.
