In this class we will share a spin on classic pearl knotting featuring a method that does not require pre-stretching or pearl reaming. We will show how you can use a strong and versatile cord option, waxed polyester cord, to achieve the classic look with minimal effort and a flawless result every time. In class we will demo a bracelet length that is approximately 7″, finished with an 18K gold-plated lobster claw and chain, with a pearl drop embellishment. You can work with any pearls or even gemstone beads.
