Here is my boho necklace made from two shades of purple Paton's Grace.
Hope the "old lady neck" doesn't scare you too badly. I tried to crop out as much as I could. :lol

I got it from a crocheted jewelry book which I've returned to the library. Not sure of the title...but think it was just Crocheted Jewelry.
Basically it was just making a small ball like a child's toy but each ball was just about 6 rows...increase for two, straight for two, decrease for two, stuffing it with fiber fill and stringing them together with some beads in between.
I'm not a beader, but I took it to a very nice bead shop in town and the gal there helped me put on a very nice closure.
I'm thinking of making one in black for my sister, who wears a lot of black but I need to ask her if she wants white, black, or colored beads in between. What do you all think?

Thanks for the lead on where to find the pattern. I think I saw the book at my library.
I wear a lot of black as well. I would stick to black and/or white without using colored beads. Because if you use colored beads, your sister would be "obligated" to wear that color somewhere for balance.
