About Me
- Oksana Starzhynska
- My blog's main subjects are sewing, the thing in which I am experienced the most, and beadwork, which is, in fact, pushed me into blogging. I am also engaged in knitting and crocheting. All together they are the set of skills which I use to make my wardrobe my whole life. These are not my only interests, I also like the English language (that's one of the reasons that my blog is bilingual), try to travel around my country and abroad (when can afford it), am interested in art (to the degree of a dilettante but nevertheless) and adore the people who can create anything beautiful or useful whatever it is :-) So welcome to a needlecrafter diary!

Twin Spiral, or Seacoast Evening
Джгут із твінів, або вечір на узбережжі
The idea was to use the twins to make a spiral necklace. Such kind of the spiral I already made for this project and as I had twins of the same colour style but different hues it was a good choice. I also wanted the necklace to fit close to the neck. Besides, you can see the zigzag pattern formed by the beads. You get it if you bead one spiral "from you" and the other "to you" (as if to the right / to the left).
To join a clasp is the hardest moment here. Mostly because I wanted the necklace to look as one piece although made of three. So I made both the spirals and the loops on the ends of different length.
To make the necklace took me about 43 - 45 grams of twins of each colour. Nice result and great temptation to have more stashed materials to realise any idea without thinking if you have enough beads for it.... Very dangerous temptaion, by the way...:-))
