Shiraz is a bead crochet rope created from thousands of tiny Japanese delica (cylinder) beads in a beautiful custom blend of shades of wine, including some crystal clear hex beads I added for extra sparkle. There's no single pattern; but instead, there are sections which have a random blend of the different beads used and other sections that have different patterns - stripes, spirals, and some that look like checkerboards. Although I named this piece Shiraz, it could have just as easily been named Merlot, Cabernet, or Rose, with all the shades of burgundy I included in the mix. This versatile rope is sure to become one of your favorite accessories, even if you're not a wine drinker!

The rope is crocheted from a custom-mixed blend of delica beads in four finishes: matte transparent, color lined, and clear hex. By my estimation, there are more than 4000 beads in this rope, all strung onto the thread and then crocheted into this beautiful piece of jewelry.

The ends are joined in an "invisible" join, so there's no clasp or closure. You can wrap it around your neck once or twice; or wrap it around your wrist six or seven times for a show-stopping bracelet.
