Directions:
Step 1:
Cut 3 pieces of Illusion Cord 21" long. About 4" in, string on a
crimp bead and crush. Each of the beads you'll be stringing for this
entire necklace will have a crimp bead before and after, but it will not
be listed in the directions to keep them a little simpler. Each of
the beads should be attached to the Illusion Cord 1.5" apart.
String on the following:
6mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
6mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
6mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
6mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone - Put this strand to the side.
Step 2:
On the second strand (starting about 4" in again), string the following:
Topaz Bicone
8mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
8mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
8mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
8mm Amethyst Round - Put this strand to the side.
Step 3:
On the third strand (starting about 4" in again), string the following:
6mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
6mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
6mm Amethyst Round
Topaz Bicone
6mm Amethyst Round

Step 4:
Line the three strands up together the way you would like them. Don't
worry if some of the beads touch or overlap. When you have them arranged
the way you would like them, string all three strands through a crimp bead,
then through one end of you toggle clasp, and back through the crimp bead.
About 2" from the closest bead, crush your crimp bead and cut off the tails.
Repeat for the other end of your toggle clasp. Finished length is
approximately 17", to make it shorter, simply pull the strands closer than
2" to your toggle clasp. Enjoy!
