Robin's Egg Wood:
Lately, I have been making necklaces that are in a choker style but with a twist. They are double stranded, but cross in the middle to make a somewhat knitted appearance. It takes a little longer to make these, but they are gorgeous when put on and can be either formal or casual. Because I prefer to use toggle clasps, these two have those, but you can also use lobster claw clasps or any other type. Also, I have made a switch from stretch string to wire. Its much more durable and the crimp beads don't fall off as easily.
