Ladder of Beads Ribbon Choker eProject

String together freshwater pearls in a ladder stitch pattern, add some organza ribbon, and you end up with this elegant and versatile piece. You can wear it as a necklace or a headband by tying the ribbon at the nape of the neck, or just wrap it around your wrist. From the Lark Crafts book Beading Vintage-Style Jewelry.
