While this project is relatively easy to complete, and can be completed by anyone who can connect wire components using a wrapped bead link, there are several steps involved.  The first few steps are involved in making the yoke component shown at right.

Spiral-Diamond Component
 
The spiral-diamond wire component can be made on any WigJig.  The particular piece made for the necklace shown here was made on the WigJig Cyclops using the peg pattern shown at right.  This pattern makes a 1/2 diamond based upon a 60 degree angle.  When using the Olympus, Olympus-Lite or Delphi, the peg pattern will be similar to the pattern shown at right, but will be based upon a 45 degree angle. 

The steps for making this necklace begin below.
