Crochet Butin

Introducing the Crochet version of my popular necklace design Butin Collar:
A striking crochet necklace, Butin requires only 20 yards of fingering weight yarn and is SO EASY you can make one in a night!  Beads are simply slipped up to form a “swag” of texture at the center of the piece.  This is crochet beaded jewelry at it’s easiest!
