VESPERTINE NECKLACE

A beautiful eclectic necklace made up of three dimensional flowers will decorate your neck- line and be a perfect accessory to any basic outfit. This project is a great stash buster as it allows you to use small amounts of yarn and wide range of color combination to play and experiment with. It is created by knitting three identical discs in either of the provided four sizes, that are later arranged on a leather or fabric base and suspended with ribbons.
