The directions on "Drops of Jupiter" in the Design Gallery have me confused.  It tells you to use 6 strands of cord at 45" each, but then it states after completing one strand feed it back up through the same beads to large bead and continue stringing the same pattern to end up with 6 strands. I may be having a "senior moment" but it seems to contradict itself.  Are you using 6 individual strands or one continuous one, which also makes the necklace impossible to make as shown. If you feed the strand back, you would only have 3 dangles below the silver bead.   Also, there are six strands above the large silver  bead and only 5 dangles below it. If anyone can decipher these directions I'd appreciate it.  I know this post is confusing too,  sorry, but if you read the directions I think you'll understand what I'm asking about.

lol... ok no you are NOT having a senior moment...

I wrote these directions- way back when I first started attempting to ... well, write directions.  

Several cording "issues" came up while I was making this necklace, so I attempted to resolve the issues by changing the method... give me a tad more time and I will review them- I need to find the piece and cross check that with what I wrote- I promise I will get back to you ASAP.

In the mean time- do you have an e-mail addy that I can contact you at?  If you do not want to post it here you can click on my name and send me a private message.

Again- sorry for my novice confusing instructions- we'll get these replaced soon too.
