Favourites is a new regular section of my blog where I will share a selection of patterns for a particular type of project, recently added to my favourites in Ravelry.
This week is all about Necklaces.
A friend of mine recently saw a cool knitted chain necklace being worn by a lady at a Sydney Writers Festival event. She asked the lady where it was from and was told that it was an Etsy purchase from Poland. After a quick scour for the "knitted chain necklace" on Etsy, I'm pretty sure that this is the one in question: Golden Chain by Celapiu
It is very cool! I like it but I would never wear something like this. It's possibly a little too big (and too cool) for me to wear at this stage of my life (maybe back in my twenties!).
So I took my search to Ravelry and found the following patterns for necklaces that I would wear...
#1 - sev[en] circle by Kirsten Johnstone. Free pattern available to download from Ravelry

#2 - Ruffled Crochet Bib Necklace by Stefanie Fail. Free pattern published on the A Common Thread blog

#3 - Indian Gold by Alyssa Kabel. Free pattern available on the concrete is made of glass blog

I love all three of these patterns and hope to have one on the needles in the near future.

That was the one...the one I saw was in grey so it was a little more understated then the orange. I love the others you found too. Who would have thought ! Is there anything that can't be knitted???
