Crochet Pattern: Wire Ball Pendant

By Candace – 8 Comments
Wire crochet is a technique that allows you to explore the more sculptural side of crochet.

    My mom had a necklace similar to this wire pendant years ago. Her’s was stuffed with cotton and you put a couple of drops of your favorite perfume on the cotton. The scent stayed longer than putting it on skin or clothing. Just a thought.
    Thanks for all the great ideas, patterns and stories.
