PROCEDURE
The procedure:
Step 1:
Mix all the types of D.
Step 2:
First create the individual "ribs". The central one is the longest. They get smaller in the direction towards the hangers with the same lengths and amounts on the right and left sides. 1x – 20 cm, 2x – 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12 and 11 cm and 12x – 10 cm (fig. nos. 1 + 2). Cut off a piece of wire which is about 10 cm longer than the final length of the "rib". String 1x CR and several D. Thread the wire through all of the strung D one more time, with the exception of the last one. Tighten the stringing and crimp the CR. Shorten the shorter end of the wire by about 2 cm (fig. nos. 3 + 4). String almost all the D from the entire length of the "rib" (fig. nos. 5 + 6). Then string 1x CR. String the remaining D. Create a peak from the last D. Thread the wire through about 10x D and the CR one more time (fig. no. 8). Crimp the CR and cut off any excess wire (fig. no. 9).

Step 3:
Arrange the "ribs" by size. The 20 cm rib in the middle down to one each of the 11 cm ribs on the right and the left. At the end, add 6x 10 cm ribs on each side (fig. nos. 1 + 2).
Step 4:
Cut off about 80 cm of wire. Attach it to the metal eye on the hanger using a rocaille loop. String 1x R, 1x KR and 4x R. Thread the wire through the eye on the hanger. String 3x R. Thread the wire once again through both the R adjacent to the CR and the actual CR itself. Crimp the CR (fig. nos. 10 + 11).

Step 5:
Attaching the "ribs" to the wire. From the rear side of the "ribs". String 1x R. Create a loop in the wire and thread it through again. Insert a "rib" into the loop and tighten (fig. no. 12 + 13).

Step 6:
The first and last gaps between the "ribs". String 1x R, 1x CR and 2x R onto the wire. Once the entire row is finished, lead the short end of the wire above the R at the first "rib" and thread it through the R and CR. Tighten the stringing and crimp the CR. Cut off any excess (fig. no. 14).
Step 7:
The first row. Start twisting the "ribs" about 2 cm from the top. The gaps between them usually consist of 4x R. The six central gaps consist of 5x R (fig. nos. 15 + 16), (fig. nos. 1 + 2).

Step 8:
The second row. Twist the "ribs" about 3 cm from the top, 1 cm from the first row. All the gaps consist of 4x R (fig. nos. 1 + 2).
Step 9:
The third row. Twist the "ribs" about 4 cm from the top, 1 cm from the second row. The gaps usually consist of 5x R. The six medial gaps consists of 4x R (fig. nos. 1 + 2).
Step 10:
The fourth row. Twist the "ribs" about 5 cm from the top, 1 cm from the third row. The six medial gaps consist of 4x R. The 4th and 5th from the centre consists of 5x R. The 2nd and 3rd gaps from the hanger consist of 5x R. The 6th gap from the centre up to the 4th from the hanger consists of 6x R (fig. nos. 1 + 2).
Step 11:
Lie the finished necklace on its face side (fig. no. 17). Attach the carabiner to the eye on the left-hand hanger (fig. no. 18). Cut off about 7 cm of adjusting chain. Decorate one end with a ring with 3x D. Connect the second end to the right-hand hanger (fig. no. 19).
