Next string on one crimp tube and thread the wire up through the wire protector and back down the other side. String on the loop of the bar piece of the toggle clasp. Thread the wire back down through the crimp tube. Pull snug and make sure the clasp sits in the loop of the wire protector. Crimp the crimp tube with your pliers. Add a crimp cover over the crimp tube. Trim and excess wire or string it down through a few adjacent beads.
Move to the beginning side of the necklace, remove the bead stopper and repeat the above step to finish off this side of the necklace. This time adding the other end of the toggle clasp to complete the necklace.
