9 Crochet Necklace Patterns

Learn How to Crochet Necklaces: Beaded Necklaces, Pearl Necklaces, Choker Necklaces and More

Crocheted Necklaces are satisfying craft projects, in large part because they allow you endless options for expressing your personal creativity.

Crocheting a necklace doesn’t require a huge time commitment; most of them are quick projects.

Furthermore, necklaces offer workable options for every crafter’s budget; necklace-making supplies can be as affordable or luxurious as you want them to be.

Want to find some fantastic ideas for how to crochet a necklace? I’m happy to show you multiple options for crochet necklace patterns. You’ll find patterns and instructions for crocheting chokers, beaded necklaces, pearl necklaces, wire necklaces, fabric necklaces and more. Most of these patterns are free, but the list also includes one pay-for pattern that I think is truly worth the money!

1. Elegant Trios Bead Crochet Necklace Pattern

Elegant Trios Bead Crochet Necklace Pattern by Amy Solovay from the Book Delicate Crochet by Sharon Hernes Silverman, Published by Stackpole Books

This luxurious necklace is crocheted using gold-plated beads and a sumptuous organic cotton yarn. The necklace pattern was first published in Delicate Crochet, which is a pattern collection focused on lightweight, elegant projects made using fine yarns. I do highly recommend this book; but if you just want the necklace pattern, it is also now available for downloading as a standalone pattern.

This is a 5-page pattern PDF that includes international symbol crochet charts; color photographs of the finished necklace; a step-by-step photo tutorial showing you how to string the beads; and a schematic.

The pattern has been tested and professionally tech edited.

You can download the pattern at any of the following links:

3. Easy Lace Crochet Choker Necklace With Beads

Easy Lace Crochet Choker Necklace With Beads — Free Pattern

This pretty choker-length necklace is a feminine, delicate-looking crochet project, but it’s surprisingly quick and easy to make.

I adore this pattern for several reasons. It’s a snap to make your choker necklace turn out the right size with this design, because you can simply stop crocheting when it’s the length you want it to be. It’s also easy to change the necklace’s “style personality”, simply by using different craft supplies. The beads you choose are especially important to the overall look and style of the finished necklace. The beads are added on after the crocheting, and there’s tons of room for creativity in making your choices.

4. Easy Fabric Crochet Necklace Pattern and Tutorial

You’ll enjoy choosing eye-catching textile prints and then pairing them with gorgeous and colorful pendants — perhaps wire-wrapped pendants like the ones in my project samples, or perhaps other sorts of pendants. The crocheting involved in this piece is ultra easy!

6. Cotton Candy Necklace Pattern

Learn how to make a beaded cotton candy necklace in wire crochet using this free pattern and instructions.

This sparkly glass bead necklace is inexpensive to make, but it looks like it cost a fortune. It’s named after cotton candy because the pink and blue beads used in the sample are reminiscent of the sugary pink and blue snacks you can buy at amusement parks or the county fair — but if those colors aren’t your style, feel free to substitute other colors for a completely different look.
