I bought some wire crochet necklaces a couple of years ago, and liked them so much, I thought I would try to make some myself. This is done with 28 gauge wire, and relatively small bead. I think I would like it a little better with 26 gauge wire, and more large beads. I might leave the seed beads off altogether, although I like the contrast that they add. I'm also very open to opinions - I plan to make a few more of these in different colors, and would love some more ideas about how to proceed.

no advice, just an OH MY !!! I took a beaded crochet necklace class a few years ago but what we made ended up so stretchy that it changed shape and size as you wore it. Can't recall the gauge or anything tho ...
That is an interesting technique , I've never used wire to crochet before.Some charms might look cute :)
