    trouble with New Crinkle in Style necklace (subscriber project)

     Has anyone made this?  I've only completed 2 of the 3 strands.  When I hold them up, they don't lay the way I expect them to - the weight of the larger beads seems to pull the strands down. I plan to finish this evening - I'll see how it looks then.

     How did it turn out?  Do you have a picture to share?

     I realized that part of the problem was that I had placed some of the crimps too close to the bends in the crinkle wire, maybe right on a bend. That made a very pronounced angle instead of a crinkle. I remade 1 strand and laid out the necklace. I think it would hang OK, but I didn't get it connected. This is the 1st multi-strand necklace I've made that wasn't simple stringing, and I knew that lining it up just right would be a bit tricky, so I hesitated - especially since I didn't finish it for the weekend I wanted to wear it!  I was sick for a few weeks, then in the hospital for the past 4 weeks.  I'm a lot better now, and at least have my laptop with me. DH brought up a seed bead necklace project for me, and I've worked a bit on that. I expect you'll see a pic of that before the crinkle necklace.
