Notes: 

I designed these for our guild's annual sale last year, and really enjoyed combining the processes. I learned a great deal about finishing, and about lace!  Originally I gave the chokers a snap closure but that really doesn't work for every neck size, so am planning to improve the ones I have left by making them adjustable, and I had a thought that it would be clever to make the pendants so that they can be clipped on or the choker worn alone.  Thanks for looking!

Thanks Everyone!

@Kitty T...I am hoping to wrap the ends around small D-rings and stitch them shut, then make matching laces so that the choker can be tied at any size. 

Thanks everyone!
