This is the trio of ropes I’m working on to highlight this pumpkin bead color dear to my heart. I had originally thought I would have more 4-around solid color non-pumpkin ropes to intersperse, but I like these three together. I will likely string the ropes on a stringing medium to get the arch of each closer to the same, since the different diameters have different flexibility. I still don’t know how I want to do the clasp, or how long I want the finished necklace.

This is a good traveling project for me – and I’m mostly beading at home lately – so this is going very slowly. I’m trying to plan a little time here and there to work on this. Maybe by the end of the summer?
