    Shouldn’t the beads be threaded on before beginning the project? How would I thread them on otherwise. Thanks for your help. It’s a gorgeous pattern.

    • Kristin Omdahl says:

      Hi Madeline,

      You could absolutely thread them on at the beginning. But, then you would have to pull them along the whole project. I suggest it is easier to cut the yarn before the last row and fasten off. Thread them onto the yarn for the last row of the pattern only. But you can do it either way with the same beautiful results 🙂
      xoxo, Kristin

    What a wonderful pattern! I made this necklace scarf with a hand-beaded silk yarn. The yarn has little iridescent beads randomly placed on it. Then I used larger iridescent beads for the final row. The final result is so pretty. I will be making more of these in differing colors. Thank you, Kristin!

  3. Dee Dee says:

    I want to be just like you when I grow up! Kristin, all of your designs are so gorgeous, I don’t know what to make first. I will be making this scarf necklace in many colors for sure! Thank you for sharing your artistry with us. ♥

    I enjoyed crocheting this necklace scarf with your Be So Fine yarn. Such a beautiful pattern and love the beads!! I must crochet with a tight tension because my scarf turned out smaller (even after blocking) so the next time I make this scarf, I’ll try a larger hook. Your ‘how to’ video was very helpful…thank you so much for your lovely patterns, yarn and instructions.

    • Kristin Omdahl says:

      Depending on the size of the holes of your beads and the size of your crochet hook, you “may” be able to thread them on as you go, but most likely you will need to cut the yarn and thread your beads onto your yarn before continuing.

    This necklace scarf is fantastic! I made it for my mum using some bamboo yarn and beads available on polish market (I’m from Poland:)) and video helped me a lot 🙂 I bought a few patterns, and used a few free patterns – thank you very much – they are gorgeous! Edyta
