Your Fluorite necklace is beautiful. I just finished a bead necklace in crochet. What type of wire do you use in terms of gauge. I tried another one with 28 but it was too stiff.

Hi Donna, Thanks for the praise!

I use 28 gauge wire, and you're right, it does feel stiff compared to yarn or cotton. You basically have to put a little more muscle into your stitches. You could practice with 30 gauge wire, but I find it too flimsy for jewelry.

Good luck!

Bye for Now,
