Even better, these necklaces are small and rarely use any complicated crochet stitches, making them ideal for beginners. Read on for modern designs and easy patterns.

A single-crochet stitch makes up most of this four-strand necklace. A crochet flower topped by a coordinating button completes the necklace. Consider alternating the colors with two strands in one color and the remaining two in another, or embroider the flower’s edges with metallic thread.
