Download or read book Crochet a Necklace: Mandala & Flower written by Janis Frank and published by Janis Frank. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's amazing what one can do with little coloured thread, a crochet hook and a bit of ingenuity. The inspiration for these necklaces was originally the creation of a mandala. For those who are unfamiliar with mandalas, the idea is to create a balance of visual elements and this in turn symbolizes unity and harmony. With the creation of a mandala, it will help to pull these concepts from intention to manifestation in a person's life. And to be honest, who couldn't use a little more harmony and balance?! Once I created the mandala, it then further developed into the flower. It's a little more work to make than the mandala, but the final product works very well and makes a great statement piece. You can make both necklaces in a very short time period, especially if you have some crocheting experience, which I recommend you have. This isn't a project for beginners. There are some spots where the work needs to be turned to work either on the back side or on the good side. Once again, there are plenty of photos to help you with the process and show you exactly how to do it. There is also an ad supported version available to read online at KweenBee.com.
