Ch 2, then work down the other side of the chain: hdc in last hdc, dc in next ch, tr in next 2 ch, dc in next 2 ch, hdc in next ch, sc in last ch. Sl st to join. Fasten off, leaving a long tail for joining.

Part 2: Assembly of the Central V-Shape

Arrange the motifs as seen in the image to form the central focal point. The small pink leaf is at the very bottom. Three large pink flowers are arranged above it, with off-white leaves and small off-white flowers filling the gaps and creating a balanced design. Use the long tails and tapestry needle to carefully sew the motifs together, ensuring the joins are neat and secure. Refer to the image for placement.

Part 3: Creating the Necklace Band

The necklace band is made of alternating pink and off-white scalloped segments with small off-white flowers. This is an approximate instruction to achieve the look.

Scalloped Edge Section (Make 2 – one for each side)

1. Start with Off-White: Attach Off-White thread to the top outer edge of one side of your assembled central V-shape.
2. Segment 1 (Off-White Scallop): Ch 5, sk next 2-3 stitches/spaces on the central piece, sl st. Ch 1, turn. Work (sc, hdc, dc, hdc, sc) into the ch-5 space. Sl st into the base of the ch-5.
3. Attach Small Off-White Flower: Sew one Small Off-White Flower securely to the side of this off-white scallop.
4. Segment 2 (Light Pink Scallop): Attach Light Pink thread to the top of the previous scallop or a nearby point. Ch 5, sl st into the top of the previously attached flower or the central piece. Ch 1, turn. Work (sc, hdc, dc, hdc, sc) into the ch-5 space. Sl st into the base.
5. Repeat and Alternate: Continue creating scalloped segments, alternating between Off-White and Light Pink threads. After every other scallop (or as desired, to match the image), attach a small Off-White Flower to the side of an Off-White scallop.
6. Length: Continue until the desired length of the necklace band is reached for one side. Ensure both sides are symmetrical.

Part 4: Finishing

• Weave in all remaining loose ends securely with your tapestry needle.
• Block the entire necklace gently by dampening it and pinning it to shape on a foam board. Allow to dry completely.
• For extra stiffness and shape retention, you may apply a fabric stiffener according to product instructions after blocking and drying.
• Attach a small jewelry clasp (e.g., lobster clasp) to one end of the necklace band and a jump ring or small chain extender to the other end.
