Yosakoi
Crystal-centered three-dimensional propellors seem to whirl like colorful Japanese Yasokoi dancers. A bezelled crystal pear meets them in the center and a bezelled rivoli sits under another propellor to form the clasp held by a fluid chain. This workshop is for beaders with experience in Peyote stitch with a step-up at the end of the row and who can hold some tension.
