Good Fortune Necklace Tutorial

Make sure to stretch your TOHO Amiet beading thread before using it. This will ensure your knots stay tight on your necklace.

Make three knots at the end of Amiet thread. Add a TierraCast antique gold-plated pewter 6mm dotted spacer to your thread and make three more knots on the other side of the bead to keep it in place. We made three knots because the stringing holes on the spacers are a little wider. Make sure to pull tight and down on the knots as you make them to ensure they are secure.
