Gehaakte ketting / Crocheted necklace

I have not been able to finish my summer scarf, because I did not have the chance to buy new yarn.
I had hoped that I could finish the scarf with the yarn I had (4 balls), but I think I have made the scarf too wide. So I need 1 ball yarn extra for the finishing touch.
In the meantime I came across some crochet necklace designs by Lia Govers on Ravelry.
I really like them.

I started with Lia’s Crochet-texture necklace, a free pattern on Ravelry. I found the instructions on how to assemble the necklace not so easy to follow, so I decided to try my own design.
This turned out not so well as I hoped and you can see.
So I decided to add some buttons, to hide the irregularities.

I found some ‘vintage’ buttons from my mother-in-law’s sewing box. I wasn’t sure I liked them.
(There were 14, while on the package it was said there should be 15. my mother-in-law must have used one.)
They are 18mm ø and costed 18 francs. My mother-in-law must have bought them in Belgium where she has a log cabin since 1978.

I laid the buttons on the necklace and I noticed that they were a bit translucent. That I liked.
Sewing buttons is not my favorite pastime, but I succeeded in sewing on eleven.

I forgot to take a picture of me, or someone else, showing the necklace.

Have a good weekend!
