You may think this saying is an exaggeration, and it is. But, it belongs to a friend who is spectacular and she brought it to me so I could make a macrame necklace because she wanted to wear it with a very formal white dress shirt. I'm sure she will accompany it with very large earrings and bracelets too, because that's how spectacular she is.

Tal vez piensen que este dije es una exageración, y lo es. Pero, es de una amiga que es espectacular y me lo trajo para que le hiciera un collar de macramé porque quería lucirlo con una camisa de vestir blanca y muy formal. Estoy segura que lo acompañará con zarcillos y pulseras muy grandes también, porque así de espectacular es ella.

For the macrame I chose a thick cord, it couldn't be any other way since the pendant is very large. I made the connectors myself with thick wire as well and with beautiful shapes, which will remain precisely because the wire is thick.

Greetings friends from the Community Jewelry and InLeo, I am happy to carry out this project, this product for a friend, and in turn this publication for you.

At the other end I made another ring, and other tighter turns, which I flattened well with the silicone clamp, and this was the result... I must tell you that I loved this connecting and decorative piece.

Now with two of the rings I begin to connect the pendant and the decorative piece, in the order that can be seen, and opening and closing the rings with the jewelry tweezers, in my case the flat one and the round one. I reserve this for later.

Ahora con dos de los aros comienzo a conectar el dije y la pieza decorativa, en el orden que se puede apreciar, y abriendo y cerrado las argollas con las pinzas de bisutería, en mi caso la plana y la redonda. Reservo esto para más adelante.

I start working with the macramé strips, which by the way are two strips of 1.50 meters each. I burn the tips to make them easier to handle, and I put a little hot silicone on the shells, it can also be cold silicone or any strong glue.

I inserted two ends of the strips and they stuck well. Now I worked with a strong cover notebook and a snap clip, since I have no other tool to weave my necklace, but this worked very well for me.

The pattern to follow is very easy:

You stretch both strips well
You pass the right strip under the left, and a kind of triangle is formed.
Then, you return the strip to the right above and inside the triangle.

Stretch both strips well to start this pattern again, now with the opposite side, and so on until you finish the size of the strips. It's very easy, really.

Once all the weaving is finished, I finish that end just like I started with the shell, and both ends are ready. With this it looks great...

I made a much simpler design than the pendant, and I placed it on one of the end rings, and the closing mechanism of the necklace looks too beautiful, it is one of the ones I like to make the most and I guarantee you that it will not be It will open the necklace while you are wearing it.

To place the pendant, I simply determine the middle of the necklace, open the connector ring to the pendant and insert it into a space on the cord.

I have already finished my macrame necklace with a jaguar pendant.

I feel very proud of the final product, both the fabric, the closure and the connection piece to the pendant. It was a very clean job, I worked in stages and I also really like the color palette.

¿Conocías este nudo de macramé? Creo que es el más sencillo, para comenzar es ideal y también para realizar hermosas prendas o accesorios para nosotras.
