This necklace measures approximately 36 inches. To modify the length, simply adjust the length of chain on both sides respectively.
  1. Begin by cutting two lengths of the matte gold rolo chain that are 9.5 inches each. Then cut two more lengths that are 2 inches each. Set these aside.
  2. Cut two lengths of the matte gold chevron chain that are 4.25 inches each.
  3. Open one jump ring and attach it the end of one length of rolo chain that is 9.5 inches. Close the jump ring.
  4. Move to the other side of this chain. Attach another jump ring to this end of the chain and to the chevron chain (note: the chevron chain should be pointing down towards the center of the necklace.)
  5. Move to the other side of the chevron chain. Attach another jump ring to this end of the chain and to a length of rolo chain that is 2 inches.
  6. Move to the end of this chain and open one jump ring and attach it to this chain as well as to the curved bar link. Close the jump ring.
