Quick Project Steps
Prepare Your Thread:
Cut 6–7 feet of DragonThread and thread a size 10 needle. Add a stop bead to hold your starting end.
Start Right-Angle Weave Base:
String: 6mm pearl – 11/0 – SuperDuo – 11/0 – pearl. Loop into a square shape and continue creating right-angle weave units across.
Continue Base Chain:
Repeat: add SuperDuos, pearls, 11/0s, forming an interlocking chain to match the desired necklace length.
Attach the Infinite Clasp:
Weave through the infinite clasp, looping thread through several times for durability. Reinforce by going back through the last bead unit.
Add Interior Embellishments:
Between SuperDuos, add: 3mm pearl – 11/0 – crystal – 11/0 – pearl. Continue filling in the interior spaces for a layered, lacy look.
Reinforce the Center Beads:
Go back through the interior embellishments to tighten the design and align the beads.
Continue Across Entire Necklace:
Repeat the embellishment pattern until the full necklace length is complete.
Attach the Trigger Clasp:
Weave through the trigger clasp, adding seed beads if needed for spacing. Reinforce the connection with several thread passes.
Secure and Tie Off Threads:
Remove the stop bead. Tie secure knots into bridge threads along the beadwork and weave ends back through.
Finish and Trim:
Use a thread zapper or lighter to neatly burn and seal thread tails. Style and adjust as desired!

I have a hard time finding specific beads although the more I shop the more I find how to look for specific items. I'm a little disappointed I bought some beads for a tutorial you have online and now I can't find the tutorial,
