Swarovski Stone Sizes as well as other crystal, stones, rhinestones, and flatbacks are often given the mysterious PP and/or SS sizing. PP and SS size terminology is a throwback from earlier times but is still extensively used by most industry leaders today. You can use our indispensable Swarovski Stone Sizes Chart to easily convert PP and/or SS sizing in millimeters and inches.
Swarovski Stone Sizes Chart
Swarovski uses PP and SS stone sizing as a very specific measurement for their high quality round stones. Without a Swarovski Stone Sizes Chart, it would be very difficult and confusing to estimate the size of Swarovski stones in millimeter and/or inches.
PP stands for “Pearl Plate” and SS stands for “Stone Size”. Discover why we have the PP and SS sizes for round stones.
The Swarovski Stone Sizes chart here is a very handy conversion guide, specifically for Swarovski crystals and stones. The information in the chart has been sourced from Swarovski™.
z.Beaded Crochet Bracelet How To
This beaded crochet bracelet is very fun to make and invites an endless array of possible variations in color, yarn type, beads and crystals.
This was done in a set: beaded crochet bracelets and finger crochet necklaces. The set is designed to be colourful, modular and interchangeable. Each item can be worn singularly or in combination.
There is no need of clasps or fasteners. Not even for the crochet bangles as each has enough of a stretch to go over hands comfortably.
This modular crochet jewelry set (CH0296) includes 3 beaded (finger) crochet necklaces and 3 seamless beaded crochet bracelets.
z. How To Finger Crochet a Cord
I love finger crochet cords. They are really fun to make and they can be extremely versatile – adapting themselves from very functional lives to very decorative styles.
These two pictures below show not only my love of bright colors, my love of finger crochet cords, but also my love of adding beads to them. And need I add, sparkly beads. And what better beads than Swarovski crystal beads right?
(When I write up the post on these Finger Crochet necklaces, I will link it from here. Or if I forget, then do a search for CH0296 and you should be able to find that post once it is up.)
