Crochet Color Block Necklace Pattern


Good morning fellow yarn lover....

Today I want to share this color block necklace that I made wayy wayyy back... Don't know when exactly but it's when the color block clothing is really popular I think. Anyway.. Since I want to kinda keep up with the trend but don't want to buy another clothes so I'm thinking why not make a color block accessories?? So this necklace is born.

I kinda forget how I made it, since I only made it on the go but I'm gonna share the patter as best as I could. So here goes...

Material:
- 3 yarn color ( I use local cotton yarn).
- chain
- ring
- necklace hook ( I don't know the exact name, if you know the name let me now #LOL)
- steel crochet hook (I think it's 2.5 - 3 mm)

Pattern:
The necklace is made from bottom to top. You can actually made it in any length or width that you like by adding more row or chain. You can also made this necklace in several rows of color or even just one color be imaginative!!

[Block 1]
Round 1: Using the 1st color, make 26 ch and make 1 sc from 2nd ch from hook all the way (25 sc)

Round 2: Make 1 ch and sc all the way (25 sc) 8x [8 row]. Fasten off.

[Block 2]
Round 3: Change to 2nd color and join from the left or right side whichever you prefer, but since I made 25 sc I wanted to make a 5 sc space at the center. I attach the 2nd yarn color at the end and since I want to make a 15 sc I 1st made 6 ch and 1 sc at 2nd ch from hook and do 5 sc. After you do 5 sc you will reach the end of the 1st block and just continue making 10 sc at the sc at the block below (15 sc)

Round 4: Make 1 ch and sc all the way (15 sc) 6x  [6 row]. Fasten offf
Round 5-6: Repeat round 3 and 4 with the other ends. Fasten off or you can directly join to 3rd color at the end.

[Block 3]
Round 7: Change to 3rd color from the end. Since I want to make 10 sc I just do 1 ch and 1 sc and 10 more sc from the sc at the block below (10 sc).

Round 8: Make 1 ch and sc all the way (10 sc) 4x [4 row]. Fasten off

Round 9-10: Repeat round 7 and 8 with the other ends. Fasten off.

If you want to make it more sturdy you can block the necklace with corn starch or hair spray. But if you're more lazy like me you can just sew / glue felt fabric at the back, it doesn't have to be felt though any fabric that is quite sturdy and can add more weigh to the necklace can be use.

Assembly:
Just add the chain and the ring at the ends of the necklace and you're necklace is done!!
