How to make a crochet bow necklace.  For more details see my blog JustBCrafty.com

chain 20

Step 2:

Join the last chain with the first chain by a slip stitch to create a round.

Step 3:

Rounds 1-4: HDC (half double crochet) in each chain stitch to the end of the round.  Repeat this for 4 rounds.

Step 4:

Bind off leaving a long tail (about 2-3 arm lengths).  Flip the piece over and take the two tails and tie them together with a knot to make the bow.

Step 5:

Flip over back and forth knotting a few times to secure the shape of the bow.  End with your last knot on the front side.

Step 6:

Now, flip the bow over so the backside faces up.  Line the middle of the chain with the center of the bow and use the tails to knot it in place.

Step 7:

Use a yarn needle to tuck in the loose tails.

Grab your clasp and jump rings.

Step 9:

Use your pliers to open the jump rings.

Step 10:

Slip the clasp and chain on the jump ring.

Step 11:

Close the jump ring.

And there you have it, a beautiful new piece of jewelry!!
