Crochet Tube Neckpiece

This project was written for the book - but didn't go in at the end. It is really easy - its simply a crochet tube made out of wire through which a ribbon is threaded. It looks effective which ever way it is worn. I made a variation which was stuffed with beads - and although that made it heavy - it was quite unusual. Big glass beads worked well - small beads would have poked through - although that might have looked good in a strange way.

We've decided that we are going to refocus 10,000 Great Ideas and turn it from a site talking about ALL Great Ideas to a site specialising on yarn focussed ideas - this is because this is where our area of expertise lies and also because we think we have some really good things to offer. Not least a facility for people to be able to showcase their own designs which is great news for all independent designers.
