Netted Cabochon Necklace
Glenda Paysano
With a deeply colored stone as its centerpiece, this necklace suggests the riches of a mysterious woman.
A peyote-stitched bezel—worked with seed beads that decrease in size to hold the stone in place—is held
aloft with lacy layers of netting.

BEZEL
Step 1:
Use 4' of thread with a needle on each end to work
tubular peyote stitch. Use one needle to work the front
of the bezel and the other to work the back.
Rounds 1 and 2:
String 1 size 10° (Round 1) and 1 size 11°
(Round 2) thirty-eight times, or use enough beads to
reach around the circumference of the cabochon. Pass
through the first bead again to form a circle, leaving a
2' tail.
Round 3, front:
String 1 size 11° and pass through the next
size 10°; repeat around. Step up by passing through the
first bead of this round (Figure 1).
Rounds 2 and 3, back:
Use the tail thread to repeat Round
3 on the other side of the size 10°s (Figure 2).
Rounds 4 and 5, front:
Work 1 size 11° in each stitch; step
up at the end of each round. Slip the cabochon inside the
beadwork and check for fit. The rows for the back should
come to the edge of the stone and the rows in the front
should lie just above the curve of the stone (Figure 3).
Round 4, back:
Work 1 size 11° in each stitch; step up at the
end of each round.
Round 6, front:
Work 1 size 15° hex in each stitch, pulling
the thread tight to cinch the tube around the stone.
Rounds 5–9 back:
Work 1 size 15° in each stitch, pulling
tight to cinch the tube (Figure 4). Weave the tails through
several beads to secure, then trim close to the work.

BASE STRIP
Step 2:
Foundation row.
Use 4' of thread to begin a strip of
1- and 2-drop peyote stitch. The single beads along the
top are a mix of size 11°s (A), and the 2-bead stacks along
the bottom are dark purple size 11°s (B).
Start:
String 1A and 4B. Pass back through the A, leaving a
10" tail (Figure 5).
Stitch 1:
String 1A and pass down through the last 2-bead
stack (Figure 6).
Stitch 2:
String 2B and pass up through the last A (Fig-
ure 7).
Repeat Stitches 1 and 2 for about 9" (Figure 8).
Step 3:
Picot.
Flip the beadwork over to work a picot edge
along the 2-bead edge of the foundation row from left
to right.
Start:
String 1 dark purple (B), 1 light purple (C), 1 dark

purple (B). Pass under the thread between the second
and third 2-bead stack, then back through the last bead
strung (Figure 9).
Stitch:
String 1C and 1B. Pass under the next thread,
between the third and fourth stacks, then back through
the last bead (Figure 10).
Continue adding 2 beads at a time and passing under
the thread between the stacks and back through the last
bead (Figure 11). Leave the thread tail at the end.

NETTING
Step 4:
Attach the cabochon bezel at the center of the foun-
dation row (Figure 12). Do not worry about the exact
placement—the bezel may be centered at each end by
the tail threads in Step 10.
Start:
Using 4' of thread, pass through a size 10° of the bezel
leaving a 2' tail. Working from left to right, *string 3B
and pass up through an edge bead of the foundation
row, then down through the next bead. Pass back
through the last 3B and through the next size 10° of the
bezel.
Stitch 2:
Repeat once from *.
Stitches 3 and 4:
String 2B and pass up through the last edge
bead and down through the next bead; pass back through
the last 2B and through the next size 10° of the bezel.
Stitches 5 and 6:
Repeat Stitch 2, stringing 3B for each stitch.
Pass each tail thread through 1 size 11° and 1 size 10° to
begin netting.
Step 5:
Netting Row 1.
Use one of the tail threads from Step
4 to work the first row of brick-stitch netting along the
foundation strip (Figure 13).
Start:
String 5C and 2B; pass under the fourth loop from
the last connecting stitch along the foundation row and
back through the last 2B.
Stitch 1:
String 2B; pass under the next loop and back
through the last 2B.
Stitch 2:
String 3C and 2B; pass under the next loop and
back through the last 2B.
Stitch 3:
String 2B; pass under the next loop and back
through the last 2B.
Stitch 4:
String 7C and 2B; pass under the fourth loop and
back through the last 2B.
Repeat Stitches 1–4 four times, then repeat Stitches
1–3 at the end of the row. Repeat entire sequence using
the thread on the other side of the cabochon.

Step 6:
Netting Row 2.
Secure a new thread at one end of the
foundation strip, exiting the last 2B of the previous row.
Start:
String 3B, 1 frosty purple (D), and 2B; pass through
the first C of the previous row and back through the last
2B.
Stitch 1:
String 3D and 2B; pass through the third C of the
previous row and back through the last 2B.
Stitch 2:
String 3B; pass under the loop between the next
two stitches of the previous row and back through the
last 3B.
Stitch 3:
String 11D and 3B; pass under the loop between
the next two stitches of the previous row and back
through the last 3B.
Stitch 4:
String 2B; pass through the first C of the next stitch
of the previous row and back through the last 2B.
Repeat Stitches 1–4 four times, then repeat Stitches
1 and 2. String 7D and pass through the second and third
size 10°s along the edge of the bezel.
Step 7:
Netting Row 3.
String 12 silver-lined dark purple (E);
pass under the first loop of the previous row and back
through the last 3E. Repeat as in Row 2, stringing 13E
in place of the 11D.
Step 8:
Netting Row 4:
Repeat Row 2, using 16 matte opaque
light purple in place of the 11D. String 11 beads to attach
the last loop to the bezel at the end of the row.
Step 9:
Netting Row 5.
Repeat Row 3, stringing 18B to begin
and 17B in place of the 11D.

Step 10:
Adjust the foundation strip if necessary so that each
end is the same length; the accent beads and clasp will
add 3

" to each end of the strip. Finish the tail threads
by passing through the foundation strip and tying knots
between bead; trim close to the work.
Step 11:
Stringing.
Cut 10" of wire and pass through the last
two beads of the foundation strip. *String 5B on each
end of the wire. Hold both ends evenly together to string
1 size 8°, one 4mm, 1 size 8°, 1 spacer, one 7mm, 1
spacer, 1 size 8°, one 4mm, and 1 size 8°. Repeat from *
once. Use both ends to string 1 crimp tube, then pass
each end in opposite directions through one half of the
clasp; pass back through the tube, snug the beads, and
crimp. Repeat on the other end of the strip.
