Hi there,

I hijacked a thread already asking all these questions and now I can finally share the results. I am really happy with my new Tahitian keshi and emerald beads strand. Even though some of the little knots could have been tighter - it was just so much fun making this, very addictive!
I used a tiny needle to push the knots (single strand PowerPro 0.13mm) up to the previous bead. I need to get a little something for the tassel but other than that, here's a ton of pictures.

Wearing the right colours while threading the beads.

Might even wear them as bracelet.

Well done! It turned out really well, didn't it?!
How the heck did you get it over your head for doubling??? Is it not finished yet, have I jumped the gun?
 
Thanks! hehe, there's a little spring clasp, it's finished now, but most pics are of the unknotted strand.
 
I love the mix and the ombre' effect, too. And the tassel!!!
 
Thanks everyone! This is my first longer necklace and it is just so nice to be able to constantly look at it.
 
Finally got everything I needed to make the tassel cap from a cast silver sea urchin shell.
