Threading tiny 2.5 mm freshwater pearls for a choker necklace. I plan on hanging that long pendant from it. I'm never doing this again. Even with the magnifier light, it's challenging when half my fingers can't feel the pearls. Where's PSS when you need it? (PSS = Pearl Shrinkage Syndrome. When you can't get your pearls BIG enough, so you keep going bigger!) Pearls from Kojima at Pearls by the Bay.
I only knotted the last 3 pearls on each end, and then glued the last knot, so hopefully it won't come undone.
I wasn't sure how long I wanted the necklace, so I didn't have Sarah string it at PBTB. I kept wearing the pendant on different length chains to get a feel for how Iong I wanted it to dangle. I decided on 16 inches, but I think it might be closer to 17" with the clasp.
