Step 5

The middle

Turn the arches towards one another so that they are a mirror image of one another.

Start sewing them together from the point of the necklace. Place a "square" in the middle of the line. Sew the left-hand (the blue line) and right-hand parts separately (sew the line as a mirror image).

Step 13

The chaton pendant

Snip off about 8 cm of chaton chain. The work will be easier for you, if you manage to extract the remainder of the connector from under the outer cup.

Step 14

Create a loop on the ends of the chain. Adjust the amount of the threading and the force on the line to the size of the cups. It is advisable to thread the line using a needle.

Create a "square" out of G and B and with R10 on the side. Thread the line through it 2x. During the stringing, thread the line through the eye on the butterfly clip and the ring on a pendant with a stone.
